I haven't heard an explanation why it made more sense to build a pipeline hundreds of miles longer to Texas instead of going directly to the west coast of Canada....


A pipeline will bring the oil to OUR country i/o China. It'll create jobs HERE i/o in other countries.

Yes, the Kitimat pipeline would be shorter than a pipeline to the Gulf coast refineries, but the oil going through Kitimat would then need to be shipped across the Pacific.
