    Yeah, all for it.

    We can thank Stephen Harper and Pierre Polievre for ignoring Europe for so long when we should have been there for you guys, helping you separate from Putin’s oil and gas.

    Hopefully Carney will remedy that situation, and we can all get rid of the despotic sycophants.

        Oh sure, but he illegally rammed three pipelines through to the BC coast to give oil and LNG to China, which doesn’t want it.

        Meanwhile he ignored the potential of a pipeline to the Maritimes, which could then ship oil and LNG to Europe. That would have revitalized the Maritimes and provided a much needed competitor to Russia.
