As Canadian political and business leaders expressed optimism the
proposed Keystone XL pipeline will win approval under a re-elected
President Barack Obama, environmental opponents and the U.S. ambassador
to Canada cautioned the energy megaproject isn’t a slam dunk.
But
Obama, who earlier this year rejected TransCanada Corp.’s initial
application because it needed more environmental review, has remained
noncommital about the fate of the line, which would ship Alberta
oilsands product to the U.S. Gulf Coast.
By the way, that reminds me, I need to post the top ten "to do" list for the EPA.
A lot of positive views by the Canadians. The chance of approval are pretty slim with this administration that resents what this country is and are not interested in anything positive for the good of our country.
ReplyDeleteThey will have to find a way to play the crony capitalist game like Warren Buffett and GE's Jeffery Imult for this administration to be interested.
Yes, Warren Buffett and GE are great at taking advantage of opportunities provided by the federal bureaucracy.
DeleteSomeone pointed out the other day the more the government picks up the tab for disasters, the less insurance companies (e.g. Warren Bufffett) will be on the hook. I had not even thought of that.
