Environmentalists may have cheered when President Biden pulled the plug on the Keystone XL pipeline, but his decision is sparking concerns of a greater calamity down the tracks as the risks associated with transporting Canadian crude oil by rail start to pile up….

This is why the MSN and Biden admin don’t want The recent train derailments on the news. The oil and gas in these rail transport cars would be a lot less if there were a pipeline to transport the oil.

If there’s a leak from a pipeline at least you can shut off some valves to mitigate it.

Not mentioned is the theft of a shipment of plastic train derailing devices. It appears these derailments are targeted and facilitated by this handy tool.

YES, an excellent point

And history has shown us, what do the ideologues and marxists do when their destruction is revealed? They blame hidden saboteurs, capitalists and political opponents. That's coming next. We'll see lots of blather from the AOC types, some fake "commission" set up to investigate, and public demands for "climate justice" from NGOs.

"They blame hidden saboteurs, capitalists and political opponents."

They're blaming Trump for reversing some Obama Executive Order regarding our rail system.

“It appears these derailments are targeted and facilitated by this handy tool.”

Anyone caught with such a tool needs to spend a decade or three in their local prison.

Why are these derailments suddenly occurring at almost the same time?
I cannot help but suspect foul play.

Pipeline or not, there a thousand derailments a year in the United States.

Rail or pipeline doesn’t matter, it’s obvious that oil and gas are too dangerous to the erf and must be banned (except for what the elite needs for their yachts and private jets).

“Spat”? I believe the author means “spate”.

We knew this was the case when Biden cancelled the XL.

There just has to be a better way, than building a pipeline, then cancelling it before it is completed.

Since they shut down work in the Keystone Pipeline I have noticed a huge increase in the number of oil tanker cars, many brand new, going South to Texas refineries on the KCS-Canadian Pacific rail line.

I have lived close to this rail line since 1956 and the last two years have been a huge increase in these new cars.

Some of Biden’s cronies are getting rich off the closure of the Keystone.

Warren Buffett owns a train company that hauls the oil that would have been sent by pipeline instead. He cost 70,000 people their jobs here in the USA and Canada when he bribed the democrats to cancel Keystone.
