As we’re caught now in roaring inflation, our health and hospital systems creaking at the seams, food prices rocketing and of course our huge national debt, it is perhaps not the smartest thing in the world to smother huge commercial potential.
The alternative was to built pipelines to the east coast. It would of cost more & Alberta would of prospered. It would of helped nationalism and Canada's energy security imo. What happened?
There was no business case to send O&G to the maritimes before more environmental regs. What makes you think there is now? Yes it reduced Alberta's prosperity & we have healthcare now. O&G goes south instead & US sends it to Germany. Indirectly we are helping.
jordanbpeterson Freeze and starve in the dark then, canuks. You voted for it. Enjoy.
Canadian media need to pay more attention for chaotic and disorderly condo management as there already be happen condo shooting(dead6) in Vaughan. The condo act need to be changed for resident interesting as the property managing Ltd and boards domineer and bully always in condo.
jordanbpeterson Jordan, with all do respect 😊; as industry begins to achieve robust manufacturing to scale in electrivaction, battery storages, and the associated knock-on support technologies might it be time to turn our gaze away from fossil based energy sources?
Well when teachers get laid off, then nurses, let’s hear the wailing begin. The unions forget who pays there paychecks. But be impossible to make the healthcare system worse, we won’t notice the difference
Trudeau is a natzee traitor
jordanbpeterson We need to radicalize Truth. Make it that crazy thing that people demand… that people will not accept “truth” without high scrutiny and verification.
jordanbpeterson Maybe this 'cold snap' will help convince him otherwise.
Vote Pierre
Except there's no reason, infrastructure alternatives or necessity to do so.
Excellent article as usual by Rex Murphy. Of course the business case is excellent and needed. For example, emergency electric generators (in power outages) cannot run on electricity but must use oil or gas. Airlines need aviation fuel, trains & transport trucks need diesel fuel.
So Germany made a deal with Qatar for lng. Qatar is not a member of opec but probably follows opec. So now Canada forced Germany to buy lng from an Arab country. Brilliant. Liberals have the mind of a pea. Canada just lost billions.
there isn't *but your oligarch bosses don't want this getting around so... okboomer nonsense centerwing millennials radiofreecanada
The entire world has determined we need to transition off oil and gas. When will you wake up to reality?
Next government will have some damage to fix.
Trudeaus word mean nothing. It’s not worth the paper it’s written on. Anyone with half a brain knows there is a massive business case. Only small minded PM can’t see what’s in front of them.
Logic from Justin Castreu!
So how do Canadians heat their homes in winter, do we go back to coal and wood, remember Europe declared natural gas as environmentally friendly
Ottawa police detective accused of planting handgun and stealing $50K in drug raid not showing up to face claims.Police planting smuggled weapons, I can only assume this is a normal coverup. Liberals gun ban = ineffective
Rex Murphy has ensured that is considered a joke
JT may want to lower his multiple travel jet fuel trips
All you greenies need to lead by example. Eliminate fossil fuels from your life and then lecture us.
The Woke deserve Trudeau..the rest of us are simply stuck with him.
jordanbpeterson JustinTrudeau destroyed our gas/oil industry. His useless carbon tax is making buying things worse for Canadians. HE DOESN’T CARE!!
Ask Ukraine how that is going. Don’t see many Tesla’s on the front lines.
jordanbpeterson If saving the planet is what we are after and we can conclude that harvesting oil and gas is bad for the planet, how does harvesting and importing it from another country be different than harvesting it and using it within your own country? I really cannot see a difference.
The fact that they've elected someone like Trudeau who ignores how important oil is to modern life and economy tells a lot about the people in Canada This is how it works in Canada: 1.Massive immigration-2.'False promises for immigrants'-3.Get elected-4.Rinse and repeat-1..
Trudeau and his Socialist NDPLiberal Coalition Movement is literally destroy Canada, one industry at a time. Now is the time to walk them all to the EXIT. RachelNotley PierrePoilievre ABDanielleSmith JustinTrudeau
jordanbpeterson Has this guy ever worked in the private sector? Does he even know what the hell a business case is?
jordanbpeterson I love the people who rage against oil and gas but use it every single day without thought. What’s it called when you say one thing, but do the opposite …
I read just a few replies and it became even more clear why we are doomed as a nation. The level of wokeness is mind boggling. Lack of education, brain washing, echo chambers, gaslighting it's a pretty efficient mix 😢
jordanbpeterson Until the real economic hurt through mass unemployment and house repossessions is felt in the gta and Quebec nothing will change unfortunately. That day is quickly coming though under racist dictator blackface Trudeau.
jordanbpeterson It's cold
You’d think Canada would be inclined to a little global warming. It’s pretty frosty there.
jordanbpeterson There is when you do it abruptly right on the back of a fake pandemic and ruin lives at the behest of your WEF/UN puppet masters against your citizens. You are a tyrant getting off on control. Hey, but agenda.
Senile Rex Murphy & the National Trash at it again. This media outlet has the most garbage & the worst collection of clown journalists ever. Rex Murphy- Senile Conrad Black- criminal Just a dumpster fire of ridiculous garbage!
jordanbpeterson Treason!
jordanbpeterson To be fair, he never claimed to be all that bright….
jordanbpeterson TrudeauForTreason
jordanbpeterson If Canada were up for sale, what would we be up for sale for, if we didn’t have oil or natural gas?🧐 Land and water?
jordanbpeterson The Left is a perniciously evil death cult. Worldwide, tens of millions will freeze to death without heat.
jordanbpeterson
good
jordanbpeterson Thats interesting. What do they think is used to move the massive turbines at the electrical plants? A team of oxen?
Meanwhile Trudeau’s family have stakes an oil and gas company….. and in the current vaccine technology But we don’t talk about that, we like being hypocrites
Such a outright lie
Under Trudeau, Canada follows the deindustrialization road of another obedient American lapdog, Europe.
AND YET, ENERGY EXPORTS ARE UP!!!!
No need to read past the headline. It says it all.
I enjoy not freezing to death in winter.
Old man forgets Alberta had record Oil and Gas production, and record exports, and record profits this year, again, while writing propaganda for right wing media. Sad.
Rex who?
Rex Murphy has been trying to gaslight the nation for Oil & Gas for literal decades, and has never been anything other than a lying climate science denying economics denying ecocide shill, an embarrassment to all that is in any way good and decent or intellectually honest.
he said as he winged his way to Jamaica for the holidays, spewing greenhouse gases from his private jet that runs on petroleum-based jet. I guess there’s a great business case for electric aircraft right around the corner.
He is just useless! Now the electric car disaster, where will the electricity come from to charge all the vehicles plus maintain our homes and businesses. Where are all the charging stations outside the cities?
He is a nepobaby
Hilarious! Your clumsy PoilievrePropaganda never fails to amuse. PoilievreLapDogs EndThePostSubsidy
When did Rex Murphy become a paid conservative lobbyist?
Umm, you need fossil fuels to build electric cars
Well said, Rex. Merry Christmas.
🤡
Nah, pretty sure physics and climate have done that Rex.
Canada will pay dearly for Liberal pipe dreams
Unfortunately’common sense’ left the building some time ago.
I’m all for saving the planet and soon, but if Canada is broke and the people destitute, then who is going to give two shits about the environment. You guys who are so smart and fighting to shut industry down better come up with an alternative plan and quick. JustSayin
I JUST DONT GET IT WHERE THE FUCK IS ALL THE OIL COMPANY ELITES ON THIS MATTER WHY ARE YOU SILENT WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR
This is what you get when you combine a gullible PM, a criminal eco activist minister of environment, and their TruAnon cult. Canada is broken.
Amen.
Who cares his plan will fail miserably
Trust fund boy doesn’t care about anyone but himself anyway! He doesn’t pay for heating and electricity so he doesn’t care about the ordinary Cdn!! Absolutely disgraceful!
I unfollowed your garbage clown show you call news. 🤡Your divisive rhetoric belongs on breitbart with all the other decrepit souls you all are. Lmao! 😂🤣. Ole’ Rex boy suffers from some sort of an interior complex issue-he always has a hard-on for the PM for some reason. 😂
right….. except for the biilions of proucts still made from petroleum
Rex nails it again. The trolls and bots can't handle the truth as per their comments 🙄. The climate cult has created the Energy crisis and high cost of living without doing anything for the Environment. They are helping bring back coal, good job.
Pretty sure Oil & Gas is doing that to themselves. Cheaper to heat with Electricity now.
Very parochial, the rest of the world doesn't think so, how can you be so, small minded and be Prime Minister of a Country.?
Is there any Spray strong enough to clean our Country's Fed. Gov. from these Liberal Ticks?
Justin Trudeau is a criminal.
Helping Canada's allies isn't a good reason, since it hinder's Justin's allies.
oil and gas are dying and not worth a dime of investment. Alberta Bitumen is even more worthless as an investment.
Blah. blah blah, but you do not present a business case. So please stop blabbing and whining and do some good.
Nice article!
There is a future for Gas but not Oil.
There is no way he is acting in good faith for Canadians.
There IS no business case that puts the cost to our environment behind the benefit to oil & gas profiteers.
Oil and gas country...What a joke
Thank god. It’s about time we get real about what we need to do
Poor Rex. Perpetually stuck in the 1960s.
His legacy is deletable
More tory b.s
At some point he will be gone and everything he has done is scrapped, he may even be jailed for the rest of his life or
Meanwhile the demand for Oil and Gas keeps getting higher and higher = $$$$$
Trudeau is openly and publicly ruining candy before the worlds eyes and no on is doing a thing to stop it.
Trudeau hates Canada and doesn’t want Canadians to prosper
He doesn’t seem to have a problem collecting transfer payments from AB feeding the un unique Province of Quebec Less resource revenue = increase in taxes Shame ! hewillneverbeready
There’s no business case for him and his government either…
As I fill up my diesel tractor and truck to clear snow during the power outage. Shows how stunned the Liberal agenda
Rubbish!
Trash rag.
He made the election promise to destroy western Canada. It would be a shame if the next prime minister promised to destroy Quebec's economy.
Ok, then…I ask you all to turn of heating your homes (if not wood burning) during this nasty cold snap…this Is such an ignorant take. Everyone thinks it so nasty but serves such a broader range that you car at the pump.
JustinTrudeau cafreeland have no common sense,no business sense,no fiscal sense… Hence no business leading Canada. liberal_party TrudeauBrokeCanada fireFreeland walkTrudeauout TrudeauMustGo
Except there is. He said ‘No’ to supplying Germany who then was forced to get it from a totalitarian regime with humanitarian crisis. But his socks looked nice while saying no.
Wouldn’t that be nice.
trudeau the worse primeminister in canadian history fallow by his dad as second hiis dad would be so proud
Next phase (coming to Canada); once the full scale economic and political collapse caused by JustinTrudeau energy policies take place 👇
