@UMFL2002 @davidharsanyi Shipping via rail costs $30 per barrel and the pipeline was $10 and the rail system used is owned by Warren Buffet who gave millions to the Dems to get the pipeline shut down because it meant lost by him. This was never about our ecology but about $$$Millions and who makes it.

@JohnDalton6011 @QuijoteMike @ppppaully It's the M1 links. The greenest way to transport goods is via rail but the roads lobby have been winning. They need depots/huge sheds that provide road and HGV access. This is a bit old but highlights the problem: https://t.co/d41wFFAvwH (Off for walk now 🙂 )

@cselley Air Canada is NOT reason we don't. The continued Liberal mismanagement of the railways and VIA rail specifically destroyed rail. Canada needs high frequency rail, increased rail line capacity and low cost alternatives to driving up and down the 401.

@knoworiginality OK, I'll break it down barney style. My local area doesn't produce energy, we import it. The cost of importing energy via rail is $15/bbl. The cost of importing energy via pipeline is $5/bbl. (Source: Congressional Research Service). Biden killing the pipeline is a $10/bbl tax

@DIorioNathaniel The example I’d use of this is VIA Rail. There are huge economic, political and social benefits to a strong nationwide state-run carrier but instead over the last forty years it’s been slashed to the bone and allowed to run down into a near-irrelevant nothing.
