Donald Trump just drove a stake through Alberta's pipeline dreams. How long will it take for the Canadian oil and gas executives who supported him to realize they got Trumped?

Donald Trump just killed Alberta's pipeline dreams
Albertans love to accuse Justin Trudeau of trying to cripple their oil and gas industry. Now, Donald Trump might actually end up doing it — by accident.

Seeing Trump's dismantling of Free Trade leads me to reminisce about David Orchard and his strong objection to the Free Trade deal with the US. This is exactly the kind of economic independence the FTA killed. Trump may end up being the correction Canada needed.

This one historical fact is the most misunderstood event in 🇨🇦.
I am a pragmatist about energy and development, but the entire line that the federal government is to blame for the 2014 oil price crash which was a deliberate act of financial warfare aimed at North American shale producers. Prices dropped 70% in 2 years.
