    All the concern about pipeline leakage often doesn't consider that the oil will inevitably be transported in some other way which also comes with dangers and risks. There is much more risk in transporting it by train and there have been bad train crash spills. The oil industry itself is a huge risk of environment petroleum spills but it has kept us alive for thousands of years. If less oil runs though pipelines, more oil will barrel around the curves of train tracks that traverse farmlands through the entire continent

    The concern from farmers in the midwest is rather hypocritical given that collectively they are pumping down the Ogallala aquifer at a rate faster than it can replenish. This has been known for years actually decades and there seems to be little concern as long as they can "make money" That seems to be evil for the pipeline company but ok for the farmer. All of this is hypocritical. Remember that the use of the water is stealing from others who rely on it for their water.

This may be a investigation into a Canadian conglomerate. As this programme highlights, they need the USA's support if they want it to succeed. The sad truth is that, you could apply this formula to any Trans, National Corporation!!! Regardless of where you sit on the political spectrum, you know that the whole system is rigged to suit the highest bidder!!! What is it going to take for this to change??

    The people who are calling for Canada to build its own refinery dont understand the process. The refineries in Texas have immediate access to loading shipping container ships in the event that oil prices and worldwide demand calls for it, and also to supply America and Canada with cheap fuel! That is exactly what would have happened if Hiden Biden hadnt canceled the project. So America went from being energy independent and the wotlds largest exporter of oil, and guaranteeing cheap fuel, while providing large construction jobs. Zll of which both America and Canada. Now that is all gone now!

    Not gonna lie, that sounds really reasonable. Why should anyone do something to jeopardize their lives, their communities, and their families just so some company can make more money? If they review the offer to purchase, weight that against the risk and decide they dont want or need the money and say "No", that seems reasonable.
    The only issue is that the decision is not being made so logically and dispassionately. It's painted red, white, blue and being waved with a nationalistic flair that immediately shows it in a light most people read as stereotypically American and backwards.

Why isn't the real issue that you can't trust the oil companies and mining companies to protect the natural resources and stability of an area? how is such a huge industry not ahead of its time in shipping and shipping safety technology? II know it was hard for the industry to get from single hull oil tankers to even double hull which is just common sense.

For 8 years as Obama was Commander n chief, he doubled his own oil production and added thousands of miles of new pipelines, all while pointing at this one pipeline from Canada, deflecting focus away from what was actually happening in the US both limiting the Canadian product off the market and away from his own market share at the same time giving his base and environmentalists, a target, Keystone XL.This might come as a shock but have a look at the Oil pipelines already operating in the US.

Then tRump reversed the hold on the construction at Standing Rock. Obama isn't innocent, but if he is a less-than-honest cop who looked the other way, tRump is the corrupt guy actively looking to work his way up in the mob.

      Oil is now hovering around $57 a barrel. The world is expected to use a 100 million barrels a day by the month of August of this year and will go on for several decades. According to the Yale University, Canada has the most cleanest environmentally friendly on the planet.

      If you really think these "currupt rich dumb asses" can affect Mother Earth ... I mean HOW?? Humans have been dealing and negotiating with the environment before any of us were documented. Let me summarize our relationship - we tend to get the short stick EVERYTIME. If Mother Earth doesn't want to deal with "big oil", then it would simply wipe them out like little insignificant, tiny, and temporary insects. Why wouldn't it?

    It take thousands of people to move oil by truck and rail, and each of these sectors permanent employ thousands of tax payers. It’s the tax payers that safeguards a healthy economy.
    Pipeline work is only temporary, the only people who will benefit from a pipe line is the billionaires who don't pay any tax. And the worse part of it all is the tax payer will be the one who will subsides this pipeline. If we build refiners instead of pipeline we would create jobs here instead of ship jobs over seas.

    it must be real difficult for the environment with all those pipelines that are already in the ground. they probably break every year contaminating the ground. we need to get rid of all of the pipelines that are already in existence and transport the oil by rail or truck it may take more energy to do so and gas prices will go up but we save the environment this way.

    I'm Canadian. In principle I want Canada's economy to do well. At a higher level of principle, I want the best for the environment and the world. A lot of Canadians are talking about the impact of this now, especially as Alberta Premier Jason Kenney unwisely spent 1.5 Billion dollars (plus a loan guarantee) to provide financial support for construction of the pipeline in Canada, knowing that Biden would cancel it if he won - which he did. Based on this video it seems the right choice was made. Either way, Biden has made the decision - it's firm - let's move on!

Oil sands are either loose sands or partially consolidated sandstone containing a naturally occurring mixture of sand, clay, and water, soaked with bitumen, a dense and extremely viscous form of petroleum.
