Zelenskyy Perturbed at Friend Trudeau

[brihard]

Looks like parliamentary committee is going to dig into this, which is good. While I suspect the decision was probably an unfortunate necessity, oversight and shedding light on such things is good if it can be done without compromising national security interests.

Ministers called to testify over Canada's decision to allow export of Russian pipeline turbines

MPs are launching a full study and will be calling for key ministers and international officials to testify on the federal government's contentious decision to grant a two-year exemption to federal sanctions, allowing a Canadian company to return repaired turbines from a Russia-Germany natural...

No business case for LNG Export? For Natural Gas Pipelines?

If Quebec doesn't want it in Saguenay then Churchill Manitoba. Ship in the summer when demand is low. Stockpile in winter when demand is high. Short pipelines to the existing network.

Ottawa's rejection of GNL Quebec's liquefied natural gas plant and export project in Saguenay, Que., appears to be the final nail in the coffin for the Énergie Saguenay project that was previously denied by the province in July 2021.

"It's a great relief for us," said Adrien Guibert-Barthez who lives in Saguenay, a two-hour drive north of Quebec City, and is a spokesperson for Coalition Fjord, a group that actively opposed the project and the impact it would have on the environment.

"It's the first LNG terminal that's been blocked by a government," he said. "It's a big step to end the era of [fossil] fuels."

The $14-billion plan included construction of a natural gas liquefaction plant and a wharf on the Saguenay fjord with infrastructure to store gas, load tankers and ship liquefied natural gas (LNG) from a marine terminal near the Grande-Anse port to markets overseas.

At what point can we just say it appears obvious, and has for quite some time, that Trudeau is actively working against Canada as a country, and hence must step down as Prime Minister.

Economically speaking, we cannot have a worse person in office. Every single project that is proposed is one of the most environmentally sound in the world, complying with some of the highest regulatory standards on Earth.

Each one of these projects will generate thousands of well paying jobs - equate that to thousands of families with a steady income. In your mind, envision thousands of homes with families living in them that have a decent income… that is what our so-called leader continues to reject.


Socially, I would argue he is trying to destroy the fabric of our country as well.

The Emergencies Act because truckers from all over the country descended into Ottawa to protest excessive Covid restrictions? (Yes they were an inconvenience - that’s how large protests tend to work.)

Saying the chiefs of police had requested it, and then have them all categorically deny it?

Trying to pass Bill C-11. There is nothing more anti-Canadian than what was proposed in this bill, all worded in such a way to make it sound like it’s actually somehow promoting or benefitting our interests.

Censorship doesn’t benefit anybody, there is no chance Canadian to be better off if the government is deciding what information we can access. Especially not this government.

This.... this makes no sense whatsoever.

…It’s right up there with the Tekk Project here in Alberta.

Highest environmental standards of any oil and gas project in the world, it would have employed approximately 5000 people directly - with plenty of smaller, local businesses starting up or expanding.

Trudeau dithered for almost 2 years, then rejected it the day before a final decision was to be rendered.


…Similar to LNG pipelines through southern Ontario & Quebec.

…Similar to oil & gas projects (on the smaller side) in Sask.


So while it doesn’t make any sense once so ever, it kind of does once we remember who’s in charge


(I wish there was a government body, or some kind of firm legislation that was generally well known, and had the power to get a Prime Minister to step down if they cross a threshold & become an obvious detriment to us as a nation.)

 

[Quirky]

This government is a complete embarrassment.

The distance as the crow flies from Fort MacMurray to Churchill is about 1000 km.

 

[Oldgateboatdriver]

Funny that it looks like Alberta has more pipelines than divided / access controled highways.

 

[Skysix]

Or put the terminal in Labrador for year round access. Re-vitalise Goose Bay or Gander?

But I agree despite the challenges of building a pipeline over (melting) permafrost and tundra (AK did it...) Churchill makes the most sense.

But add a pipeline company owned "spill response vessel" (icebreaker) into the project to reduce reliance on the CCG's old and overtasked ships (aka Ottawa's interference).

Ironically, from the GoC's own website about LNG:

"According to a Conference Board of Canada study, which estimates the potential contributions LNG exports may make to the Canadian economy, an LNG export industry equivalent to 30 mtpa in British Columbia could add roughly $7.4 billion to Canada’s annual economy over the next 30 years, and raise national employment by an annual average of 65,000 jobs. The Government of Canada is working closely with British Columbia, other provinces and industry partners to create conditions to support the development of an LNG industry in Canada."

Canadian liquified natural gas projects

There are seven liquefied natural gas (LNG) export projects and one infrastructure project in various stages of development in Canada.

Reconfigure a couple of AOPS hulls for the CCG and station them in Churchill?

would need a pipeline across Quebec and that will never happen. Even the first nations are beating their heads against the law when it comes to energy projects.

 

[suffolkowner]

LNG should have been done decades ago. With Quebec in opposition going east seems unlikely. Would Churchill actually work? I wonder how long the attachment to Canada in rural BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and even Manitoba can last?
