RE:RE:RE:Competition from Watson near Prince RupertGreat post. One can readily see the bottleneck issue involving rail only. This is going to cause
delays in scheduling. CNR doesn't care, their profits are fantastic. The Feds don't care
but they should. Just another example of stupid thinking. Pandering to enviro groups
and natives might win you some votes but not smart for the whole country. You don't get
much tax revenue from natives and their cultural heritage or from enviro groups but that is
exactly what the country needs or it is heading down the road to broke.
Years ago, when the north east coal opened up for export to Asia, the Feds and BC gov't
bent over backwards to develope those resources and get rail and power lines to the coal
mines and to tide water on the west coast for seamless export. Now they can't get a pipeline
built for all the surplus gas we have for LNG or propane export. A country with no vision
that continues to squander opportunities will soon be not much of a country. Sadly, that
is Canada.
