FARCICAL TRANS MOUNTAIN PIPELINE FIGHT

We’ve descended from the simply ridiculous to the absolutely farcical in this endless battle to build an oil pipeline to the West Coast.

How daft has it got? Well, imagine for a moment you’re a constitutional lawyer representing the B.C. government and you inadvertently pick up the wrong case file rushing into court.

You start arguing against the proposal to twin the Trans Mountain pipeline with its potential cargo of Alberta crude only for a somewhat confused judge to stop you mid-plea, pointing out you’re actually the legal counsel who’s supposed to put the case as to why Alberta should be forced to keep piping its oil down the same darn route.
