Canada’s natural resource minister rebuffed calls to issue sanctions on the United States over President Joe Biden‘s move to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline expansion.

“Madame Speaker, I have not yet heard a single argument that would convince me that a trade war is in the best interests of our oil and gas workers,” Seamus O’Regan said during an emergency debate in the House of Commons Monday evening.

 

Have a drink Seamus your work here is done.

 

Angus Reid Poll: Overall, 59 per cent of Canadians say it’s time to move on from Keystone XL, an opinion driven by respondents in the country’s most populous provinces, especially Quebec

Trudeau Celebrates Biden: We Have ‘So Much Alignment’

Trudeau Celebrates Biden: We Have ‘So Much Alignment’

On Friday, asked about the decision by President Joe Biden to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau touted the “alignment” between himself and Biden as well as Canadians and Biden, saying they were “much more aligned on values.”

As you read this you’ll realize how truly fecked Canada is.

HARRIS: Killing Keystone, Biden’s gift to Trudeau

HARRIS: Killing Keystone, Biden’s gift to Trudeau

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney is right to charge the federal government with being weak in their response to President Joe Biden’s decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline.

Considering that it will cost Canada billions of dollars and thousands of well-paying jobs across the country, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s statement that, “we are disappointed but acknowledge the President’s decision to fulfil his election campaign promise” is pretty weak tea.

Justin’s plan for you – Sustainable Green Impoverishment: Biden rolls out Trump-like ‘Made in America’ executive order

President Biden spent the first week of his administration taking executive action reversing many of former President Donald Trump’s signature policies, but on Monday, he will sign an order that has the hallmarks of Trumpism.

Biden will direct his federal government on Monday to update laws and regulations governing how it spends roughly $600 billion a year on contracts for goods and services. The order attempts to strengthen existing provisions giving workers and manufacturers in the United States preferential treatment, some of which haven’t been changed since 1954.

Specifically, Biden is asking agencies to tighten the requirements that need to be met for a product to be considered made in the U.S. He’s also requesting that they make it tougher for the government to justify buying foreign goods because of the price.


Forget Keystone! Justin will ask for an exemption for Canadian goods.

Yea, sure he will, just not too hard.

And when Biden’s people say no or grant some concession that likely benefits Quebec above all others he’ll secretly smile that his plan for a “green economy” has just been given another booster shot.

FUREY: Trudeau puts all his eggs in China’s basket

When it comes to the COVID-19 vaccine, Justin Trudeau had one job – deliver the provinces with the vaccine. Unfortunately, it looks like he’s failing at this one job.

How could he possibly do this? It turns out Trudeau signed a deal to develop a vaccine with the Chinese firm CanSino in May and didn’t start signing deals with other vaccine candidates until August.

Anthony Furey discusses Trudeau’s latest failure and the realities of the vaccine and the virus.

Canada didn’t start Keystone XL dispute — the president did, Kenney says in rebuke of Biden

Alberta’s premier has offered another sharp rebuke of the U.S. president’s decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline, going so far as to accuse him of showing “disrespect for America’s closest friend and ally.”

In an interview with The West Block’s Mercedes Stephenson, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney criticized newly inaugurated president Joe Biden’s decision to block the US$8-billion cross-border energy project on his first day in office.

From the people ‘smarter’ than us… “We thought China could become more democratic. Instead, it is becoming totalitarian”

McCuaig-Johnston: We thought China could become more democratic. Instead, it is becoming totalitarian

China’s regime is often called authoritarian. It certainly has been that under Xi Jinping. But its recent programs of surveillance and repression show the characteristics of a totalitarian state, with technologies of which Hitler and Mussolini could only dream.

This is shocking given the expectation that decades of economic reform would bring liberalization and some democratic attributes. But Xi has turned his ship of state around. In the Economist’s 2019 Democracy Index, China’s regression resulted in a fall of 23 places in the ranking in one year. It is now near the bottom, below Iran, at 153 out of 167 countries.

Gee what a surprise! Canada’s China class is still selling this bullshit. Just like they push nation destroying mass immigration. They’ll do anything for their 30 pieces of silver.

ANDERSON: If Ottawa Won’t Sanction the US, Alberta Must Sanction Ottawa

ANDERSON: If Ottawa Won’t Sanction the US, Alberta Must Sanction Ottawa

Within hours of taking office, newly elected US President Joseph R. Biden Jr. withdrew the US federal permit for the Keystone XL pipeline, effectively killing the project on the spot.

Biden is of course, likely clueless as to the facts surrounding Keystone. He likely has no idea, nor does he care about the tens of thousands of jobs he just terminated, the financial opportunities for indigenous groups he just destroyed, and the children he just introduced to welfare.

Inside Alberta’s very bad week: A behind-the-scenes look at the killing of Keystone XL

 

EDMONTON/CALGARY – The Alberta government’s trade office in Washington, D.C. called home last week with grim tidings: Rumours were circulating the U.S. capital that President Joe Biden was planning to scrap the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office.

It set off a wave of alarm. The Alberta government worked through the weekend to prepare its response strategy and a flurry of phone calls were placed between Ottawa, representatives in Washington and to the TC Energy headquarters in Calgary. On Sunday, news outlets reported on a Biden team transition memo that said the death of Keystone XL was coming.

The fix was in. KXL’s cancellation fits the LPC agenda perfectly. Impoverish Canadians and call it building a “sustainable green economy.”

With Keystone XL effectively dead, where does Jason Kenney go from here?

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney has spent the last number of days calling for consequences and compensation in the aftermath of U.S. President Joe Biden revoking the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline.

But Canada’s options appear limited, and are unlikely to include the introduction of sanctions, as the premier has suggested.

In an interview Saturday on CBC’s The House, Canada’s ambassador to the United States even said it was time to let the project go in favour of other pressing bilateral issues.

The fix was in.
