  4. Canada needs to get nature’s biggest oil spill cleaned up asap!
    Even if it takes Gateway and Keystone to do it.

  7. Meh…that survey has been up since Jan.10 ….and we are just on to it now.
    Clearly the regulars here avoid CBC.
    We should delegate some brave soul to take one for the team on a daily basis.

  11. Hmmmm. It seems, according to the CBC poll, that the environmental “risk” ends at the BC/Alberta border.

  14. @ coach
    Ahhh, come on now. Most of us that live in the northern half are still sane and bark eating druids don’t live up here. Vancouver/Victoria is not all of BC.

  15. peterj, I’d also include the population of the S. interior of BC in the sane category. After living in the interior of BC, I can’t understand how I tolerated Vancouver for so long. Really the question should be is not whether the pipeline goes across N. BC, but how large a chunk of BC should separate from the moonbat coastal bits and join Alberta. Then it would no longer be a problem of running a pipeline through N. BC but rather N. Alberta (a greatly expanded Alberta).

  18. This poll shows what happens when too many people become disconnected from the basic economic building blocks of a society. Living in caves, gathering seeds and rubbing sticks together is no longer an option.

  22. The bleeding heart-afraid of being afraid-metro sexual-brain dead-disconnected from nature-ignorant of human nature-socialist-effeminate- Steven & Chris/The View watching crowd is winning…No big surprise this being a CBC poll
    Nope, we are still not suffering enough in North America…The insanity still prevails big time: Brought to you by big Government who keep kicking the can down the road insuring mass somnolence.

  23. my vote was blocked cause the “have too many votes from me” in other polls. Guess they didn’t like my opinions.

  24. went to vote from your link and it said I had voted to often today. so I went to the CBC’s site separately and voted no problem.
    I wonder if the state broadcaster is blocking all votes redirected from s.d.a.?

    Tried the same thing but it wouldn’t accept another vote from me. Noes still ahead. I wonder if some leftie blog out there has caught on to the SDA tricks of the trade. Oh well, it’s only CBC.

  31. BAN TANKERS AND OIL PIPELINES IN CENTRAL/EASTERN CANADA. MIGHT STOP A SPILL. BAN CHAVEZ CITGO OIL – MADE FROM ORINOCO “TAR SANDS”. MAKE CENTRAL/EASTERN CUSTOMERS’ HEADS EXPLODE!
    Think that will ever happen? Someone should ask Suzuki about that. I’m sure the answer will please all those drivers in Trawnna and Mont’real, who vote Liberal/NDP.

  33. The poll isn’t doing very well, and this thread should get bumped, I think.
    Yes – 43.09% (2,896 votes)
    No – 56.05% (3,767 votes)

  34. Financial Post is running a story on this too and I dropped this into their comment section.
    We already have over 700 000 km of oil and nat.gas pipelines running throughout this country with very few problems and no major ones.

    This one will exceed all safety standards with double hull pipe and double hulled ships. Just build the damned thing. As far as the oil sands in Ft Mcmurray is concerned , all we are doing is cleaning up the largest oil spill on the planet , no thanks to mother nature.These bark eating druids would protest blankets for the homeless if the oil companies were supplying them.

  35. Hmm. Philosophically I want to vote yes, but I’m still holding out hope that Nobama will somehow ending up having to approve the Keystone pipeline and we will get those jobs, instead of the Chinese. Guess I’ll just abstain from this one.
    🙂

    There are only two major players in Ft. Mac. Suncor and Syncrude. Suncor already has 4 refineries, 3 in Canada and 1 in the USA. Syncrude is actually a middleman that just put a whole pile of players under one flag. One of those players is Mocal, which is owned by Mitsubishi and another is Sinopec which is China.Nexen is wordwide and Murphy is USA. The capacity of FT Mac is now at 350 000 bbl’s a day which is more that suncor can handle for refinement. The gateway pipeline is a investment to allow FT Mac to run at full capacity and there is probably some pressure from Sinopec, Mocal, Nexen, Murphy,AEC , Imperial oil,and the Canadian oil sands partnership (Calgary) to start exporting. Big bucks involved and FT Mac can ramp up production as required. Enough oil for many decades and a major boost for the Canadian economy. The Saudies don’t like the competition but if production goes to full capacity the US can give them the middle finger. That should feel good. Only treehuggers and Obama standing in the way and as always,…the natives. It will go ahead regardless and it’s win, win for North America.
