I have so many questions.

I read that optimizing TMX, which BC would support, should be first consideration or project. Do so by adding pumps, and other means. Maybe common sense and obvious, but there is already a pipeline built, leads to Burrard Inlet, etc. TMX is at 800K barrels a day production, they can get that to 1.1M barrels a day with optimization. That number is already pretty staggering to me .. 800K PER DAY!
I also think that Carney is doing this to placate AB, I think he got a lot of positive vibes from Albertans for this, pissed BC'ers off but if nothing comes from it ie. no pipleing built, then no butthurt for us.
