    Is this the one that goes through reservations, where we send the RCMP to steal even more land and displace the protesting natives?

    So we have money for this, but can’t build public housing. Right.

    If oil is so profitable, let the oil companies foot the bill themselves.

      Exactly this. All that “free market” talk always seems full of promise and idealism and then the government OKs subsidies like this and it’s just naked corporatism through and through.

    Blocking affordable EVs while building oil pipelines… that’s some bold commitment to stopping climate change!

    Why is federal government providing favourable financing to the private sector?

    Seems like communism to me tbh

    For the owner class that is

    Unfortunately I support doing this so we can wean off American money.

    I know this didn’t start with trumps tariffs, and I know fossil fuels are awful, and fossil fuel companies are among the worst.

    I support this because oils create more than just fuel, and we’re in a drowning moment and need a lifeline.

    I love listening to people talk about Trudeau in the office:

    He does nothing for oil companies that “drive our economy.”

    He also wastes money on TMX.

    He also doesn’t do enough to separate our economy from the states, like building TMX.

    He also doesn’t do enough to tie pur economy to the states.
