Look at this hippie fighting against Canadian progress. He's so against the oilsands, but he has no idea how much the oilsands already benefit our country.
That's the problem --- All these hippies protest against the oilsands, but they never really do the research and see that it's such a huge economic driver of our economy.
You want to be bankrupt like the US? Alberta oilands is the reason why we're not!!!
@noftchks1 That is why we need diversification of our economic model. Pumping raw bitumen & resources, without any value added products, is stupid economics. Your comment reveals the precise reason why we need to stop focusing on the oil sands and begin focusing on diversifying our economy. This is economics 101: diversify. Moreover, raw bitumen/resource extraction gives very few jobs relative to capital extracted by international corporations. I say nationalize the oil sands 4 the people!!
I piss myself when I hear the US whining about NAFTA. We have to sell them our oil for the same price we sell it to our own citizens or face "litigation" to say the least. Canada needs to become a more protectorate economy or fall with the empire next door. The US has become a fire sale as everything corporate shifts global. Canada needs to start worrying about taking care of itself and if we sell, we do it to the highest bidder. Profit is what capitalism is about, is it not?
bad for the enviroment! but good for the economy!maybe look at ways of less poluting but very good if you have a job and a family!but im liveing in england at the moment and its shit here! im trying to get a job in the oil sands im canadian and if i get offerd a job as drillers helper or labourer ill be there like a rat up a drainpipe!to feed my family is more important to me than anything,any contact numbers for a job anyone?
wilson7cat is right, why go to the USA, keep our money and spending here...let tourism in florida collapse and we could buy the whole state...why support US restaurants, shopping, gasoline companies, pay rent, hotels recreation...we are fools
I don't think the US would have a gas shortage if it weren't for the Snow Birds from Canada sucking up US gas supplies on their migaration south to sunny Florida and other southern states. Leave those RV's and rusty gas hogs Home.
say what?? snow birds??? you realize that the state of new york has the same population as our whole country!! so you should rethink that comment wilson7cat. and your gas supplies are partly because of canadian oil...just using our share asshole

wait till Obama cancels NAFTA, Canada can join the EU and start selling to a multiple number of countries, not be bulied for supplying 1/3 of all oil needed in the USA and let them deal with the middle east and help there economies and regimes...:<]
It's just infighting.
