It's hurting her province already, that's the point. They have to sell their oil to the US at a 30% discount because they can't access any other markets.
We have the coast and we can make things way worse if this turns into an all out war. It'll hurt us and it'll hurt them, that's why I think Notley is stupid to turn this into a trade war.
She knows she'll never win against Kenney and she's desperately trying to out-Kenney Kenney. In turn she's making this issue more contentious than need be.
Horgan is protecting our interests. The locals here overwhelmingly don't want the expansion and I don't blame them (us). I certainly don't want to see a 7 fold increase in tankers in Metro Vancouver.
Burnaby is the next municipality over from me. It doesn't matter how rare oil spills are, a 7 fold increase = 7 times more likely to happen.
