More leverage for Trump’s trade war. Good job everyone.
Western Standard- Guilbeault pulls pin on $11-billion Kitimat refinery project
First proposed in 2016, Pacific Future Energy had envisioned the 150,000 barrel per day refinery, near Kitimat, as a way to export refined petroleum products like gasoline, diesel and jet fuel to Asia.
So let me get this straight: prorogation simply means that the government can pursue its ideological agenda and execute its whims without any of the bother of parliamentary scrutiny or oversight by the elected representatives of Canada?
We knew Trudeau admired China’s “basic dictatorship”, and I guess he’s found a way to bring it home. But yeah, sure , “buy Canadian” and Trump’s a meanie. JFC.
Yes, Trodwell, you got that straight. They found the way to turn it all around on a thin canadian dime.
An aside…that map of N. BC was where I and our crew planted millions of trees back in the 70s.
More trees than the Turd planted, for sure.
Plus, the Turd wouldn’t have survived the places us tree planters drank on the off days, as we needed to be a full crew so as not to get beaten by the loggers.
PS… Guilbitch needs a serious tuning up
Guilbeault needs an appointment with Madame Defarges.
French haircut?
Indeed
Is keel hauling still a thing?
With a well barnacled hull!
Gobsmacked, I am.
Dictatorships alive and well in Canuckistan
What’s the Trudeau Administration’s response on Trump meeting with India’s Prime Minister (Modi) today?
Don’t know. Just like I’m wondering, what’s Pee-Pee’s response to this?
Yes, but Canada will be a world leader in sustainable energy and high paying green jobs o’plenty will be available to out of work roughnecks and pipe fitters. This must be true because Justy and Chrysta said so! This federal government is living in dreamland. And to think this former eco terrorist is now the minister in charge of things. Good grief. In the words of Killary Klinton, “can’t we just drone him?”
The company notified the government on Dec 3, 2024 that they had cancelled the project.
a) Why the government took two months to cancel the impact assessment, is due to incompetence.
b) the Liberals put so many roadblocks in the way of the project, going back to 2016, that cancellation was a foregone conclusion.
c) I leave it to the reader to speculate who funded the Indigenous and environmentalist opposition to the project and the northern gateway pipeline.
US foundation money laundered through NGOs.
You could have the most conservative pro-business government ever, and it would not matter one iota.
Canada is chock full of sniveling communist weakling peasants. They are loyal to the Crown as the great benefactor. Canada does not elect its leaders. It elects MP underlings who then elect leaders who may or may not be appointed by a retarded man-boy King. Canada is and has always been a monarchy, fully owned by the Windsor family of Great Britain. Canadians are fully owned Subjects of the Crown and have no inalienable Rights.
The only true solution is an armed revolution with a total breakup of Canada, and Quebec, and its reconstitution as a democratically controlled Representative Republic.
Grow up, Sunshine.
Something needs to be done but Canadians on the whole are cowards. The generation that fought in WW2 are gone.
There’s a First Nation community at Haisla BC with Chief Crystal Smith, which may have an opinion on the federal gov’t preventing them from succeeding … directly in the same water as Kitimat.
I had understood the First Nation had been supportive of this, the other elected chiefs and bands on this pipeline route did as well, while those hereditary chiefs had opposed. The hereditary chiefs may have been funded by “outside money” …
“There’s a monument that stands at the Alamo, it’s there not because they won…but because they fought.”
Western Canada needs its freedom. Let’s get on with it rather than live on our knees.
We can win.

Either a effing moron or in the pay of uncle sam.
The Straw that broke the Camel’s back! This will be necessary to take action ! Canada is finished!
Guilbeault and Trudeau have destroyed Canada the WEST must separate!
Leverage. It’s nice to see the Faeiries all working together to defeat the behemoth to the south.
Why would anyone build 150,000 barrel per day refinery in 2025? Try 500,000 barrels.
Build with expansion in mind. It can be done.
Is this the new Team Canada approach the Liberals/NDP promised? Or was that just for booing little girls singing the USA national anthem?
We are governed by terrorists.
Buy Canadian!
What? Where?
Even most “Native” goods are foreign sourced.
Lack of foreign sales supports further US control of Alberta crude; Guilbeault thumbing his nose to spite his face. What a maroon.
