What's this gay shit?
First off, pipelines replace trains for transporting oil. Trains are much worse than pipelines. Remember Ohio? Ours was Lac Megantic, in Quebec; a train exploded, carrying oil, by a town. Several people died and the town had to be evacuated. Most pipeline leaks are caused by sabotage, just like forest fires, and they happen far from population centers.
Second, oil itself (and natural gas), replaces coal, which replaces wood, which replaces straw/dung for basic heating and cooking fuel. It is far cleaner, and cheaper, than any alternative, including renewables. The "oil is bad" narrative is fake and gay.
Finally, Trudeau is not approving pipelines. Our entire energy sector is in a death spiral because it's too expensive to get energy from central Canada to the ocean. Germany and Japan have recently asked Canada to sell them natural gas (in Germany's case, so that they don't have to rely on Russia); Trudeau told them he "couldn't make a business case" for it.
This is cringe climate-retard talking points.
Wow, that is all you got from this video? They weren't even supporting climate change, they were calling out the hypocrisy.
I get the feeling you are an industry fella.
