I agree this is a good idea in principle, but I have a nagging sensation our brilliant leaders will f*ck this up and we're going to get the shaft. Why don't we team up on Mexico???
I expect Canada to get trampled on the following issues, in the following ways:
Softwood: More clear-cutting of Canadian forests (and whatever happened to our $6 BILLION in illegal tarriffs the US collected?)
Freshwater: Take all you want, waste half you take. It's not my fault you settled your country in the southern (less than) half of our continent...hope that beach house in Malibu is nice in February, thirsty?
Fisheries and Oceans: Cod stocks are already on the decline, are we losing our control over fishing off Grand Banks? Will the US coast Guard take over patrols?
Oil and Gas: We'll be fine. Fine until there's a heat wave and suddenly we need to increase energy prices to offset the cost of importing energy we had in the first place, but surrendered to the US out of fear of invasion if we resisted as a 'Rogue State'
Which also leads to the question of why our oilsands export pipelines lead into the US, who sell the energy to Japan et al. Why is it we don't pipe it out to BC and sell it ourselves?

Dude, its not rocket science. The companies working the oil sands have refineries there ...
Why build a refinery when you can build a pipeline? |
