  • Deflationary currency, where they have to give you specific demotion in pay to stay at the same purchasing power. Also housing appreciation needs to be readded to the CPI so that it raises interest rates when it gets too high.

  • Kinder Morgan owned the pipeline, the feds approved the pipeline with an insufficient indigenous approval, the courts shut it down. Kinder Morgan pulled out, the Feds bought the pipeline to prevent every oil company from losing faith in the industry.

    Canada is still hamstrung by these activists, which these projects do fund our social safety net and our crazy spending, I don't think anyone can argue against that.

  • What happened was they did an indigenous consultation in 2016, then it was ruled insufficient in 2018, so they bought it after Kinder Morgan gave up on it.

    So sure, I guess they are pro pipeline, but it was their fault it wasn't done by Kinder.

  • In 2018, due to regulatory and political uncertainties surrounding the Trans Mountain Expansion Project, Kinder Morgan decided to suspend all non-essential spending on the project. To ensure its completion, the Canadian government agreed to purchase Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain assets, including the pipeline and terminal facilities, for C$4.5 billion. This acquisition led to the establishment of the Trans Mountain Corporation, a federal Crown corporation responsible for the pipeline's operation and the expansion project.

  • Here's a lot more on his outlook on governance:

    He deeply believes in stakeholder capitalism. That government should intervene relatively consistently in most aspects of society. Its hard to believe the polls could do a 180 like that, given the Carney and Pierre are ideologically opposite.
