And The Downside Consequences of BC's Pipeline Protests - The Rest of Canada Pays Through More-No Morneau's "Full Indemnity From Losses" Solution

With all the legal tools and authority at its feet to begin this pipeline tomorrow, the route that Trudeau, More-no Morneau the Federal Liberals choose is to...spend more money, not on a vialbe pipeline, but spending money on covering losses. 

After "claiming" to have reviewed all options on the table, the solution the federal Liberals have decided is to let BC carry on about its protesting business and allow Kinder Morgan "to attempt" to proceed with a pipeline.  If Kinder Morgan's efforts cannot happen or result in completion, well the Liberals will still claim they were always "pro-pipeline" but still appease (and fund!) the non-pipeline groups and voters.  Meanwhile, all Canadians are out billions of federal tax dollars.

And what's that I hear?...Oh ya, crickets. Still nothing for veterans.  Welcome to head scratching Canada.
