Dumb as rocks president shuts down keystone pipeline

All Gone on day one!!!!

According to the Keystone XL website, the project, initially proposed more than a decade ago, would sustain about 11,000 U.S. jobs in 2021 – including 8,000 union jobs – and generate $1.6 billion in gross wages.

Marty Durbin, president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s Global Energy Institute, said Biden’s decision is not grounded in science and will put thousands of Americans out of work,

We should be getting our oil from our allies in Canada not from the mid east again!!!

“Halting construction will also impede the safe and efficient transport of oil, and unfairly single out production from one of our closest and most important allies.”

Trudeau raised Keystone XL as a top priority when he spoke with Biden in a phone call in November. The project is meant to expand critical oil exports for Canada, which has the third-largest oil reserves in the world.

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney said over 2,000 people have lost their jobs.

“The leader of our closet ally retroactively vetoed approval for a pipeline that exists and which is co-owned by Canadian government, directly attacking by far the largest part of the Canada U.S. trade relationship, which is our energy industry and exports,” Kenney said.

Instead of 830,000 barrels of oil safely flowing down the Keystone, now they'll have 4.400 trucks or 1300 trains DAILY to move mid east oil. Stop pretending this was ever about the environment. -- Mackie, 11:11:49 02/02/21 Tue
