Me, I'm just recognizing the reality. Harper said they will sell to the Chinese if the US doesn't get off its collective rear end. The oil will be sold, it just depends on who is the buyer. If the Chinese then it will go through the TransCanada pipeline to BC and then to China.
I'd rather see it go to the US. If TransCan is willing to reroute the pipeline to address environmental concerns then no problem. The issue is that most environmental groups hate oil sands extraction (for good reason). Instead of blocking the sale to the US they should try and figure out ways to mitigate the associated environmental effects of the Tar Sands.
