First Germany comes to Canada, looking for LNG (liquefied natural gas). Then Japan. And we have nothing to give them. Why?
Justin Trudeau. That’s why. And his merry band of anti-energy protestors and ministers.
While the US has moved fast and hard to get LNG export facilities in place over the last decade, Canada has dragged its feet and stubbed its toe. We let protestors (Coastal GasLink), provincial governments (Quebec) and the federal government (Energie Saguenay) get in the way. Now, while the world is crying for LNG from Canada, we have nothing – NOTHING – to give them.
What else would you expect from a government who killed the Northern Gateway and Energy East pipelines? That scared off Teck from its $20 billion Frontier oil sands project? That hardly whimpered when Biden killed Keystone XL?
The only way this will change is if we have a change in government in Ottawa, and a change in attitude in this nation. We can’t be Can’tada any longer. The world needs us.
Too many grifters that rely on govt cheques in one form or another to ever vote ourselves out of this now. Even in Alberta we have the NDP that may very well get elected this spring. We let the left cement themselves into power by surrendering all our institutions to them. Culture, education, boardrooms, religion, charity etc, all taken over by the far left. Western civilization is circling the toilet bowl.
All true. The fascinating part is that now that the federal regime makes no bones about its intent to bulldoze the Alberta economy into the stone age (“Just Transition”), the urban Alberta Eloi are quite prepared to elect the same party that is encouraging the Spawn-Fuhrer to do it faster. Big government Conservatives did this in Alberta by spending like the NDP under the Conservative banner for the last 50 years.
John – the only “vote” that gets us out of this is for independence. And until people in the cities are cold and starving in their hovels , that isn’t going to happen.
“Can’tada” the perfect word for our lack of backbone.
I was going to post the same thing. Can’tada — a keeper.
Not to worry, Brian … CAN-a-done will DO something … they’ll lead the world in Lithium mining to serve the elite’s fleets of electric cars. Oh, don’t bother, plebes … you can’t afford to purchase them, or operate them.
That’s only if the 271 conditions can be met. Plus the unwritten one about money for the Lieberals.
Juthtin is simply a low IQ puppet. Neither he, nor any other Canadian official makes any decisions of their own. They are just the front men for those who rule Canada, and the world.
This is simply theatrics.
There will never be any LNG exported from Canada. And it wouldn’t make ANY difference if Juthtin dropped dead tomorrow. He’d simply be replaced with another script-reading puppet.
Neither would a Pierre Poilievre led controlled-opposition fake-conservative party make a difference. Different puppet wearing a different color.
Same hand up their ass.
Trudeau and his media seem to have polled the word ‘extremist’ and liked the results.
We may as well use that information.
It perfectly describes his government’s energy and global warming policies.
If forcing farmers to grow less food in a time of low food stocks and forcing hundreds of thousands of Canadians out of their well paying jobs isn’t extremist, what is?
And stupid. Germany is using coal whereas they could be using Canadian LNG.
The extremist Trudeau global warming policy puts more CO2 into the atmosphere.
People who support Trudeau’s extremist energy policies are just stupid.
It’s not anymore complicated than that.
Of course the Turd failed us. What else could happen when you elect someone to run the nation who’s greatest personal achievement is being a part-time substitute high school drama teacher? A job that he had to leave part way through the school year with a mitt full of Non-Disclosure Agreements.
We would have been better off electing a retarded cocker spaniel as PM.
Chris, You win on this thread, great comment. +++++
As for “We would have been better off electing a retarded cocker spaniel as PM.”,
That was my best laugh of the day so far. So thanks.
The article stated that US natural gas export production went into high gear in 2016 — but failed to mention that that was the year Trump took office.
Now, in all fairness, “Economic Feasibility and Engineering Planning for Liquefied Natural Gas Projects” was covered on day 22 of Substitute High School Drama Teacher school and Le Dauphin was away that day. But! It was a hell of bender the night before!
Since when is it up to the government to decide what is and what is not a business case?
When you are in a centrally planned communist state with all the scientific and economic acumen of a gnat.
The Canadian government has spent the last 50 years inserting itself into every facet of our economy to the point where unless you have close connections to at least one level of government your chance of success in any major business enterprise is significantly lower. The party in power hasn’t seemed to matter at all in that regard.
We’ve been spoon-fed facism for at least half a century and now we don’t know how to survive without it.
Blackie failed us the minute Fidel was done w/ Maggie.
DB, Yeah, A communist stepfather, a violent communist for his real father, and a dumb mother with a mattress strapped to her back, and look at what that created…A narcissistic psychopathic entitled drama queen! Only in Canada (Cantada) could such an idiot be elected PM, and reelected PM another two times. I’m inclined to agree that western separation is the only answer, but I’d bet we’ll need to fight our way out of this failed state!
They want us all to be huddled in our houses freezing and hungry, or preferably dead. Don’t let it happen.
The Laurentian Central Planning Committee may determine that the Prime Fertilizer has been “in power” long enough.
They may even let Canadian proles give a retarded cocker spaniel the big desk at the PMO.
But as Watto writes, nothing will change.
Need to get rid of the poison? You need to cut the head off the snake.
