" this is just politics to deflect the facts"

Good. It's always helpful for an objective observer to tell us what the "facts" are ;)

Canadian taxpayers have spent billions in the patch. In the national interest, we've produced abundance. We have a pipeline going east that could be quickly and economically adapted, for which key players - political, infrastructural, and corporate - have publicly advocated. On the west coast there's extreme opposition to a pipeline.

Yet we still can't supply eastern provinces with oil.

Facts.

[Edit: Appreciate your POV; this discussion is no big deal. Probably nothing will change, including people's dug-in opinions. Very likely the national interest will take a back seat to corporate agendas and big capital, now including Sinobucks. There have been few politicians willing to oppose such interests. Canadians? Sheeple. Hewers of wood, drawers of water, bowing, scraping and selling their future to others. They don't care their our own]
