David Staples: Canada should retaliate on Keystone by building its own new pipeline

David Staples: Canada should retaliate on Keystone by building its own new pipeline

U.S. President Joe Biden shut down Keystone on his first day on the job, a rude message for Canadians but one that we can turn to our advantage.

We are a bit player in their national drama, the Biden administration is reminding us. We’re to be ignored and discriminated against as Washington sees fit.

Joe Biden’s attack on fossil fuel goes faster, further than anyone expected

Oil and gas companies knew they would face a fight with President Joe Biden, who had campaigned on tackling climate change. Nobody expected fossil fuel to come under such an immediate attack.

Biden didn’t quietly sidetrack the Keystone XL pipeline with legal manoeuvres. The new president yanked the permit on his very first day in office, blocking a project that would have delivered crude from Alberta’s oilsands before even speaking to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Biden’s Gifts for Illegal Aliens – Welcome to the open-borders president.

Biden’s Gifts for Illegal Aliens – Welcome to the open-borders president.

President Joe Biden is the illegal aliens’ best friend. He is asking Congress to provide a pathway to citizenship for the more than 11 million illegal aliens presently living in the United States. And to make the illegal aliens feel better about themselves, Biden is seeking a change in U.S. immigration laws to replace the phrase “illegal alien” with “noncitizen” to describe them.

Rex Murphy: Of course the Liberals didn’t support Keystone. There was no ‘political gain’

If there is no ‘political’ point for doing the right thing, why waste time even thinking about doing the right thing?

I don’t suppose it would surprise anyone to discover that among the “bicycling community” (everyone is a member of a “community” these days), support for the Keystone XL pipeline is nil; that avid cyclists hold much the same negative affection for oil and pipelines as vegetarians do for sausages and chicken wings.

The Mainstream Media’s Embarrassing Biden Lovefest

The Mainstream Media’s Embarrassing Biden Lovefest

Their adulation is beyond parody.

When Joe Biden was sworn in as the 46th president of the United States at 11:48 a.m. on January 20, it was to be expected that the mainstream media would be ecstatic about the pomp and circumstance of their preferred candidate bringing his half-century of Swamp experience into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Biden White House Warns It Won’t Allow Questions From Conservative Media

One of the big sea changes in the Trump administration for conservative media came at White House press conferences.

President Trump and his people opened up the press conferences from the narrow confines of the White House Correspondents Association and the mainstream media to a range of conservative media. That infuriated the media and the Biden White House is predictably signaling that will come to an end.

Joe Oliver: Trudeau paved the way for Biden’s rejection of Keystone

Joe Oliver: Trudeau paved the way for Biden’s rejection of Keystone

Under Trudeau’s leadership, the government is deliberately squandering a stupendous legacy — the third largest proven oil reserves in the world

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau got a taste of his own medicine when on Inauguration Day, President Joe Biden dealt a body blow to the Canadian energy industry by cancelling the partly-built $8-billion Keystone XL (KXL) pipeline. What Biden did to our country was hardly different from what Trudeau had inflicted on us before. And for the same fatuous and hypocritical reasons.

Leadership? Trudeau is a traitor who betrayed Canada.

Making America California

The Biden administration seems determined to run the country on the ruinous model of the Golden State.

As the Biden administration settles in and begins to formulate its agenda, progressive pundits, politicians, and activists point to California as a role model for national policy. If the administration listens to them, it would prove a disaster for America’s already-beleaguered middle and working classes.

China Has Already Started to Test the Biden Administration

Not a week has passed since the inauguration of President Joe Biden — whose son reportedly engaged in business deals with China worth $1.5 billion — and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which illegally seized Hong Kong last summer, has already sent more than two dozen warplanes, including bombers, into Taiwan’s airspace for two days in a row.

China also issued a new law permitting its coastguards to launch pre-emptive strikes without prior warning” on any foreign ship that might enter disputed waters that China would like to consider its own.

Border Wall Contractors Told to Stop Construction by Tuesday Night: Congressman

All Customs and Border Protection (CPB) construction on the U.S.-Mexico border wall will stop by the end of Tuesday, according to a Democratic congressman whose district is located along the border.

“I received notification that in accordance with President [Joe] Biden’s executive order, all CPB contractors have now been formally notified by CBP Procurement to pause construction activities on CBP self-executed projects,” Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas) said in a statement. “While CBP cannot speak on behalf of the U.S. Department of Defense or U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), it is expected that DOD and USACE are undertaking parallel action on CBP-funded border wall projects that they are overseeing.”

Amazing: Travel Bans Are No Longer Racist Under Joe Biden

In case you hadn’t heard, there’s a new variant of the novel coronavirus cropping up in South Africa. Of course, we’re hearing about new variants all over the world at this point, so that’s probably not all that newsworthy. Still, newly minted President Joe Biden doesn’t want to get caught flatfooted by this potential threat so he’s going to aggressively take action.
