Yes, its good for the economy and social welfare, but make sure that they fully meet the environmental standards to preserve wildlife.

 @B4N2F7Dfrom Alberta  answered…5 days5D

No, not until the Aboriginal Bands this project effects agree to it. I also don’t trust the track-record of pipeline installation by Enbridge.

 @9FHNJS3from Alberta  answered…2yrs2Y

yes, but take steps to do less harm to ecosystems and the indigenous communities, even if the cost is higher

 @9MC4BQLfrom Alberta  answered…11mos11MO

No, we have basically waged war on local tribes by allowing militias and even used the US army to help against those who would stand in your way. Not to mention the history or pipelines leaking and destroying the environment just for this energy source.

 @Kieranja23from Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

No, pipelines are bad for the environment and oil is a sector that needs to be fazed out.

 @8VNM7XJfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes. I think Canada should be self sustaining. We can have better control over how clean the oil we need is by using home grown. A pipeline to Quebec will be way more environmentally friendly and ethical than shipping oil from Saudi’s Arabia or Venezuela up the St Lawrence.

 @8VMB6WPNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes but only as a stop-gap for alternative energies. Building a pipeline with a shorter lifespan will allow Canada to leverage their oil and gas to market while creating an increase importance of exploring alternatives energy.

 @8VH22SVfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

If it is approved by the people and there are plans in place for environmental restoration once the pipeline is build then there is no problem

 @8VBHQZPfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, as long as private property rights are respected and tax payer money isnt used

 @8VBDLW7from Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

We should be striving for significant and rapid change to sustainable energy.

 @8V4C6JNfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

We should evaluate the long-term liability of Canadian oil for the global market. It may become too expensive to produce and become a burden rather than a benefit. If long-term forecasts suggest viability, then build it

 @8TZ65QCfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

I’m of the mind that pipelines are the safest way to move oil products HOWEVER we should be striving for significant and rapid change to sustainable energy

 @8TQ6LMDfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8TM8L3Wfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes, but only if every precaution and safety measure is taken. And if the majority vote by communities, not politicians, is reached.

 @8SJ2XGNfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

I do support the project, so long as all Aboriginal bands this project affects agrees towards it. As I do believe this will provide social and economic benefits, but shouldn't become forced upon to the lands of the Aboriginal groups if they don't agree upon it.

 @8RRBRMSfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8R4KM77from Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

Only temporarily until more renewable resources, and enforce it so it doesn't destroy the land

 @8QVDZR9from Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

 @8QTBS2Nfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

ultimately no because although it will provide social and economic benefits for the country in the short term future. It is not sustainable for long term life and we should already be looking into better energy and economic sources.

 @8DFVTYVfrom Alberta  answered…5yrs5Y

 @95BRPDNfrom Alberta  answered…3yrs3Y

A pipeline should be built for more efficient and clean transport of natural gas until other energy alternatives are created. The construction of the pipeline should be built with input and influence from Indigenous communities.

 @94BMSDBfrom Alberta  answered…3yrs3Y

No. We shouldn't sell our oil to China. If we are selling it to Taiwan or another Asian countries that share our interests, then yes.

 @8YTL4ZMfrom Alberta  answered…3yrs3Y

Only when the majority of aboriginal bands this project affects agree to it

 @8QRXYGTNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…4yrs4Y

No, because it goes on Aboriginal land and the money should've been used on environmentally friendly alternatives.
