    “Five dimensional chess…” they said. “It’ll never happen!” moaned #elbowsup Liberal voters who conned our #NDP votes in the last election under the guise of “strategic voting”.

    Despite all the gaslighting, many of us in #BC knew this unneeded pipeline would be forced upon our Province against our will yet again by ANOTHER Liberal Government, despite Carney gleefully stealing our votes to prop up his make believe “majority government”.

    I voted against #PierrePoilievre because he was threatening to do exactly what Mark Carney is doing now. Our #elbowsup votes were used against us, not Trump, as Carney grifted.

    Mark Carney has taught me a valuable lesson though. Never again will I vote strategically, and never again will I vote #Liberal. Fool me twice, shame on me.

    Two dirty bitumen pipelines in 2 decades running roughshod over British Columbians, First Nations and our longstanding environmental regulations.

    #MarkCarney has hung an dead albatross around this Liberal Party’s neck. They will now reek of oil and federal overreach for decades to come.

    Shame on #Carney and all of his sycophantic supporters who have abandoned the left, First Nations, and British Columbia; all in pursuit of oil money and appeasing a separatist traitor.

    This overkill pipeline will be the most costly pipeline ever built in Canada. It’s environmental costs will be socialized in BC and it’s measly gains privitized in separatist #Alberta.

    It will be shoved without environmental assessment through forest fire prone areas and pristine ecosystems, destroying our species at risk.

    Whoever builds it will need to pay for round the clock security everyday to defend it, just as they needed with #TMX. The price, both environmental and financial will be through the roof.

    Eventually Canadians (who said this would never happen) will foot the bill for this open pollution of our once beautiful Westcoast; removing our tanker protections, destroying our species at risk, endangering community livelihoods and coastal industries through decades of future pollution in the Strait.

    Shame on Carney (you are no unifier), and shame on this Liberal Government. You stand for nothing but austerity, big money and big oil and true Canadians see it.

  6. Well that's an improvement at least!
    “Smith said the oil pipeline that she's advocating to be built to the B.C. coast would not terminate at Kitimat because the area is too "complex" for oil tankers to navigate.”

    (I suspect the Coastal First Nation opposition is an unspoken part as well)

    Now to cross Prince Rupert off the list... as well as any further expansion of TMX.

    Hey, so the federal liberals don't do much nationalizing of industry, but when they do, it's a pipeline.

    And the #tmx? It's now up to C$40b, or $1,000 for each adult and kid in the c/a/n/a/d/a project.

  12. @pinhman @crispius

    the at least $18 B cost.

    That is $18 B of new subsidies, from your linked article "taxpayers could end up contributing up to CAD 18.8 billion in subsidies".

    It's already over $35 B of direct, sunk cost, or over $40 B if we're counting indirect sunk subsidies:

    The direct funding Canada provided for TMX totals $35.6 billion—roughly
    $1.4 billion more than typically reported. The indirect financial subsidies raise government exposure to over $40 billion.

    Note that $40 B figure does NOT include externalities!!! It does NOT price in greenhouse gasses, the risk of pipeline damage from landslides or atmospheric river flooding, there is no risk-costed contribution from possible tanker accidents, etc.

    and even if TMX operates at capacity for 20 years under some miraculously free carbon capture technology,

    More than $25 billion of the funding is ineligible for recovery via proposed
    shipping tolls. Canada’s ability to recoup the remainder of its investment is limited by toll-setting issues. Taxpayers will likely take a large hit

  13. “There is this incredible revisionist history,” said Amy Janzwood, an assistant professor in political science at McGill University.

    “It’s like, ’We bought #TMX, look how profitable it can be.’ Profitable is not the word we should be using at all.” #canpoli

  15. I openly opposed #TMX on #Twitter a decade ago. As a result, I received constant online harassment, death threats and regular late night phone calls from machines that just said “goodbye” then hung up.

    For all those saying “This pipeline will never happen”, there are many more right wing Canadian #MAGA bullies who are ready to push the point.

    Sadly, as of my recent anti #NorthernGateway posts, the late night calls have resumed. Last night’s came at 4AM to my cellphone.

    #MarkCarney has no idea of the hate storm he’s released on #BC due to his partnership with #DanielleSmith on this bullshit #MOU.

    Intimidation and harassment in #Canada is a very real thing. Many Canadians unaffected and unconcerned with this pipeline have no idea what would happen if they openly opposed it.

    This is the reality for #climatedefenders under #Liberals who have once again emboldened the worst people n Canada.

    I hesitated to speak out against this new pipeline, knowing the harassment would continue. But that’s their intention, to intimidate me into silence.

    So late night phone calls again it is. Last time this triggered me so much I spent way more time openly opposing the pipeline to spite the hate.

    This pipeline will probably get built, despite all those minimizing by saying it won’t. I know this because of the constant misinformation in the #MSM and on #Facebook, skewed polls in favor of the pipeline meant to nudge public opinion, and the start of a new harassment and intimidation campaign by right wing lunatics.

    The machine has once again awoken and anti Climate Liberals are at the wheel, steering Canada away from clean options while letting #Conservative goons do their dirty work.

    Northern Gateway is a Nation Burning Project not “Nation Building” as Mark Carney would have you believe.

    We will resist this pipeline and we will continue to fight, despite biased Canadian Media and #MapleMAGA threats and harassment.

    This will be the most costly pipeline ever built in Canada, both financially and politically. If built, Liberals will carry this oil-soaked albatross for a generation.

    Carney’s betrayal will cost them dearly, as dearly as opposing another dirty oil pipeline will cost all of us in #BC.

  20. @tabmcleo toxic, carciogenic, and unrecoverable in ocean water, #bitumen should be banned. Force oil companies to upgrade their bitumen to crude oil, or face high environmental taxes. #bcpoli.

    But we all know there is no business case for any more pipelines, but it is entertaining to see both Danielle Smith and Mark Carney score political points without any snowball’s chance in climate roasted hell of a project even being proposed. #tmx #oilandgas #climatecrisis

  21. 💯🎯 Stewart Prest, UBC political scientist comment wrt Premier Smith booed by UCP re AB-Ottawa/Federal govt energy MOU:

    "With TMX the federal Liberals basically did what Carney is promising to do—pushed a pipeline to the coast over BC and Indigenous objections. They even federally funded it, dispensing with the need for a business case.

    It didn't even move the needle. Why would a second pipeline be different?"

  22. @sleepy62 @thegreenpagesBC

    Same thing happened with #TMX. Discussion turned from “this will never happen” to “this is happening just shut up and accept it” on a dime. No consent required, no votes required. Abusive, forceful authoritarian Liberal Federal governments are now the Canadian norm.

    Bye bye #Liberals, don’t let the door hit your Neo-Con asses on the way out!

  23. In supporting #DanielleSmith’s demands to force yet another bitumen pipeline on British Columbia, oil drunk #Liberals are done in #BC.

    Voting strategically for #MarkCarney despite my continued rage over the environmental destruction #TMX has wreaked on #Burnaby and #BC was the dumbest leap of faith I’ve ever taken at the polls. Conservative kiss-ass Carney can kiss his strategic voters in BC goodbye.

    This is no “nation building” project, it is a capitulation to Big Oil pressure under the guise of nationalism, and the start of yet another federal war on British Columbia and all those protecting it.

    This dirty, useless, expensive project won’t get done without shady #American or #Saudi investors, #Palantir drones patrolling the skies of Northern BC, and the inevitable sacrifice and destruction of our beautiful coastline for Alberta’s greedy, dirty oil economy.

    This project will be Mark Carney’s albatross to bear, hope it was worth it for these pitiful Liberal Traitors.

    This is no “nation building” project, it is a capitulation to Big Oil pressure under the guise of nationalism, and the start of yet another federal war on British Columbia and all those protecting it.

    This dirty, useless, expensive project won’t get done without shady #American or #Saudi investors, #Palantir drones patrolling the skies of Northern BC, and the inevitable sacrifice and destruction of our beautiful coastline for Alberta’s greedy, dirty oil economy.

    This project will be Mark Carney’s albatross to bear, hope it was worth it for these pitiful Liberal Traitors.

    Pushing back on oil pipes discussion. I dont see any govt money going to pipelines after #TMX. (Unfortunately i still see fed tax$ going to magical carbon sequestration. ) There is no ROI on future pipelines, and without tax $ they will not be built.

    ZEV Mandate. Detroit auto cos in Canada are the problem. The ZEV rejig should favour smaller EVs with lower prices. Made in Canada should attract higher credits.

    New policies must be multipronged

  44. @ZenHeathen @atomicker

    You are missing the underlying strategy. Sometimes achieving objectives may not be a straight line. I see what Carney is doing. He reads the room and makes incremental advances.

    EV’s are already a wining technology for all the businesses and consumers that drive them.

    On the oil pipelines anybody with market savvy knows no private oil co (or group) will sign up as a proponent because doing so would kill their share prices. Never again #tmx

  45. On a similar note - on Friday, I toured the Vancouver harbour, with staff from the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority. These photos show the terminus of the TMX pipeline - where Alberta oil is loaded onto ships headed to Asia. Another reminder of how our provincial economies are deeply interconnected - and why Alberta is dependent on other Canadian provinces to succeed. #Vancouver #TMX #Alberta #ableg #cdnpoli #TRCM

  46. @dyckron

    If #Carney submits to Danielle Smith’s demands under #Alberta’s childish threat to separate, this #NDP voter will lend no more future votes to the #Liberals.

    I live in an area upended by the #TMX construction for years. Hundreds of ignored protests, years of tall blue fences surrounding our local trails adorned with threats of incarceration. Dirty oiler flags and dirty workers smirking at residents anger as they idled their trucks for hours destroying our local habitat.

    Alberta is admitting to #Canada they will never be content unless they are given carte blanche to destroy BC ecosystems and build new pipelines, despite lack of demand for their product.

    There will always be another devastating project being forced upon us by #DanielleSmith and her heartless O&G Barons. This time, she’s content to sacrifice #BC’s #haidagwaii and North Coast, all for the sake of a dirty, greedy, corrupt Oil and Gas Industry. This will not end well.
