Make no mistake, the events that led to a Montana court putting a hold on the Keystone XL pipeline is a strategy designed by interest groups in the US to keep Alberta’s Oil at a discount to America.  Canada is estimated to be losing billions of dollars because of the delay in the pipeline.

Our leaders acknowledge that with Canada contributing only 1.6% of total global emissions, our efforts are largely symbolic but that’s no excuse to do no cost benefit analysis of climate policy. That’s a recipe for wasting money. 

“Lest we forget” – the problem is that so many already have – or never knew in the first place, which may explain why we’re so casual with the freedoms our veterans fought and died for.
