      This is obviously true but also a pointless take. Nobody thinks one singular action is enough its thousands of small actions to diversify away from America.

    2. What a stupid take. Neither will removing interprovincial trade barriers, should we not do that either? Every little bit adds up. Oils our largest export by far and most goes straight to the USA, that’s a huge vulnerability and exactly what Carney was talking about during his speech when mentioning integrated supply chains.

    3. No one thinks there is one simple bandaid solution to any of this. It is going to take a lot of work in a lot of areas.

      >There are other nation-building projects that offer better paths to independence

      Okay, do all of those too.

      > It would take years to build and decades to pay off, assuming global oil demand and prices stay high.

      So will every other nation-building project.

      >Let’s broaden our imaginations instead. Let’s ask how else we might invest the tens of billions a new pipeline would cost. What other industries, partnerships, and long-term strategies are available to boost Canadian autonomy and decrease American leverage over us?

      The country needs investment across the board. A pipeline also buys some unity with the prairies.

      Like most NDP-leaning voters, I was really put off by the pipeline MOU. But then, weeks later, the President of Venezuala was kidnapped by a foreign power.

      You think the PMO didn’t know that was coming? Carney got ahead of what could have been very internally divisive with a soft promise to Alberta.

      Carney knows what he’s doing and how to handle the moment. Just breath. We might make it out of this OK.

      Every news cycle there is always an article about canada and pipelines but not one company has yet to step forward to pay for it.
      Until there is actual industry interest in a pipeline, other than O&G wanting the taxpayer to buy them one, all this discussion is moot.
