The Canadian Landowner Alliance advocates for provincial legislation that recognizes property rights, and, that the Federal Government of Canada enshrines property rights in the Charter of Rights and freedoms.
We'd be in a lot better bargaining position if our National Energy Board hadn't made the incredible decision to ship our natural gas/propane reserves off to the US last fall. A good, recent fuel "shortage" in the mid-west would have ratcheted up our bargaining position.
(Note to the stupid arseholes who released our reserves last year based on predictions of a "warmer than normal winter".)
Excellent point Jamie! We just might get another chance at twisting the U.S. of A's arm on approving Keystone this fall. Propane is still in short supply in the upper Midwest (only means of delivery now is by rail) and their corn crop is dragging behind in maturity (just like ours here in Eastern Ontario)....I wonder if the NEB learned anything after allowing the export of propane in the fall of 2013? Probably not.....
