The Keystone Kop-out Kontinues

Canada to Obama: ‘Make Up Your Mind on Keystone, Lightbringer’
.... "Canada bluntly told the United States on Thursday to settle the fate of TransCanada Corp’s proposed Keystone XL pipeline, saying the drawn-out process on whether to approve the northern leg of the project was taking too long.

 

"The hard-line comments by Foreign Minister John Baird were the clearest sign yet that Canada’s Conservative government has lost patience over what it sees as U.S. foot-dragging.
....
“ 'The time for Keystone is now. I’ll go further – the time for a decision on Keystone is now, even if it’s not the right one. We can’t continue in this state of limbo,” Baird said in a speech to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

"Although the State Department is responsible for ruling whether the pipeline meets the national interest, President Barack Obama has made clear he will make the final decision."
....
"Oh, it also makes sense, another big negative for this clown-car administration.
The whole world was supposed to love us if Obama was elected president and he has somehow managed to piss off Canada.

"Three more years."

 

The Clockwork Conservative: The Oil Will Flow Somewhere   "But here is the crux of our dilemma.  The oil will flow somewhere.  Canada is not about to let their developing oil reserves sit idle for anyone.  With the Keystone XL expansion on hold for now, they have already started taking steps to find other customers and China is first in line.  To get the oil where the Chinese can get to it, Canada is laying out plans to expand one existing pipeline and add another one."
