@Juskazhann Read my comments above you will see that I know what the hell is made out of oil and our dependency on it. But as long as it is ok with some people and to not even question the path of this nation is idiotic. Tesla had tech. available a hundred years ago that would have given us all free energy but greedy elitist coudnt tax it. But you keep sounding like you do. It doesnt bother me a bit, I know there are people like you and until your more informed your kids will be like you! SAD!

@Juskazhann I can complain all I want asshole,knowing that all generations before me didn't see this coming.You all just sat around watching f-ing football and eating ho-ho's while our country caught fire.Well now you are the minority on this and damned if people like you will guide this country ever again.Go back to sleep sheep, oil is your God and oil will be your death.As for me,I know there is a better way and will not bow down to the ignorance of souless sheeple.you have never been right!

@Dara6344 Yep, everything is fine, nothing to worry about, DUMBASS! Everything I "find" I check my sources, thank you. But everything is fine, keep shutting down our coal plants and siphoning oil from sand, even though we have billions of barrels sitting under the midwest right now! Keep stripping away from the natives, who cares!

@TheChristianRight09 Not really. Most of the workers are from eastern Canada or the US and send money home. That's beside the point; the majority of the revenue generated by these projects ends up with executives and shareholders of oil corporations, not the local community, not people of Canada.

[TheChristianRight09]

@pf611 taxes are paid,employees spend money in the local economy...

[pf611]

@TheChristianRight09 The profits from these projects are held by oil companies who actually receive subsidies from the government. The workers do not live in the area and are not necessarily Canadian.

[TheChristianRight09]

@pf611 so who's working those jobs and collecting those tax revenues...???

[pf611]

@TheChristianRight09 Canadians do not get that money.
