I know it won't happen, but if BC were to ban Alberta oil they'd be fucked. Most of the oil that gets refined in the tiny refinery in Burnaby is piped in from the existing KM pipeline from Alberta (My info could be old, pipeline substations often can intersect and reroute. Especially near cities). The only other refinery is in PG and that one barely produces enough oil to keep a Chevy Sprint lubed up.

Alberta refines roughly 25 times more oil than BC. Almost 4 times more oil than Ontario. If people are really asking (and a lot seem to be, at least through what I see in social media) for that boycott, where would BC import it's oil from? Would they get it trucked up from Washington? Doubt it as that would be too expensive. They would get their oil imported on tankers from China.

Either way, this whole thing is stupid in my opinion. There are already many pipelines going to BC and pipelines from within BC to other parts of BC. Adding a new pipeline that will be looked at through a microscope the whole way is probably the best thing because of the scrutiny, the pipeline itself will probably be the safest one built in Canada.
Just to be clear I was joking.

Figured so as I've come to know a lot of the people who have been here as long as we have. But, so many of my family and friends think it's plausible to do just that

The more I hear Horgan speak, the more I'm starting to like him.

Still early in the game, but I'm feeling positive about his leadership. I have not given him a single thought, tbh. I should check out more about who he is and where he comes from.
