Calgary-based energy giant Enbridge received the approval of Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s government June 17 to proceed with the construction of the $7.3 billion Northern Gateway Project connecting Canada’s rich oil sands in Alberta to a British Columbia port, despite the strong objections of aboriginal “first nation” tribes and (environmental activists)

NEW YORK – With the increasing importance of oil sales to the Canadian economy and the Obama administration’s continued blocking of plans to build the Keystone Pipeline, Canada is moving ahead with the Enbridge Northern Gateway Project, a pipeline to expedite the shipping of land-locked oil reserves in Alberta to China.

Good for them. Let them destroy and deplete their natural resources.

I don't have any desire to be like Canada or China, and what either of them does with their natural resources should not be the basis of what we decide to do with ours.

There may be arguments for moving ahead with the Keystone Pipeline, but "Canada is doing it" is not one of them.

A lot of our oil (Alaska particularly) and Canada's oil goes over to Asia now.

Yeah, I have no interest in keystone. Dirty oil traversing our heartland, now numbers of long term jobs and then its shipped out of the country. No thanks.
