Funny how pipeline advocates like to justify it by saying we might as well accept it because the oil will get transported, sold and burned anyway - if by truck or by rail.  Well fine then - by your own admissions, we don't need the pipeline. It's not up to BC residents to subsidize transport costs for private companies. Plus, and THIS IS A BIG PLUS, at least the oil doesn't pass through Vancouver harbour that way. So just pi*s off and send the stuff someplace else.  If it leaks onto Alberta soil, or North Dakota soil, that their problem, not ours.
