Keystone XL Pipeline

[Frodo]

Considering that the Obama administration has approved drilling in the Arctic over the protests of their environmentalist supporters, it's a fair question to ask.

Seeing as Rachel Notley opposes it and the oil industry is not financially secure enough to stump up for big investment projects, probably not.

Nope, Obama is too attached to the Sierra group.

[Mr. Smith]

Considering Obama's been a waffle on environmental stuff before, probably.

I don't think Obama is holding it off for so long just to approve it down the road. I think he honestly disapproves of Keystone, and he just didn't want to give a hard no for fear of backlash. Now that he has low oil prices and Notley to cover for his decision, I expect the project to be buried soon.

honestly I wouldn't have minded Keystone being passed as some sort of compromise bill (like increased royalties from fracking on federal lands or a national renewable electricty target), but in the grand scheme of things the pipeline is way overemphasized in terms of importance.

Dead in the water now with comrade Notley in charge in Alberta

If pressure was still on for it, yes, but not anymore.
