Fuck the U.S.... We should build our own refinaries and sell to buyers who are willing to pay more for it... such as China. I think it's about time we let go of "big brother's" hand and step into the world to be a main player.

the tar sands are the most harmful industrial project on earth, they pollute our air water and land

You do realize that countries like china and India are not fully developed nations so they are not held to the same standard. The issue is why are we not looking for other ways to produce energy why are we stuck on an archaic form of energy.

@hungrytomato I think we're on the same wavelength here. Agreed that name calling doesn't solve anything. I think that's why I like Rex Murphy. I don't always agree with his opinions, but I do appreciate his reporting on important issues.

immigrants heading to Canada should think again; are they heading to support and work in the Tar sand supported projects from Manufacturing companies to the Retail Industry. Canada is dirty not sweet anymore..by 2020 Alberta will receive 70billionUSD paid through taxes from the tar sands. Today a vast global corporations are heading to Alberta in the Oil sands to do some dirty work. The US has now invested in getting oil from Canada through a vast Keystone XL pipelines that will begin soon.

@weazz I agree with a lot of what you said and I say it all the time and try to live it myself. Be the change. Gandhi was the man.

I think we're on the same side. And if you want to talk about real issues as you say and have a real discussion, I'm game for that. But if you just want to throw accusations and name calling around, I have better things to do. We have enough problems to solve without silly bickering.
