Ha ha oil though kittsalano

[leftoftrack]

CP is reactivating a I line for false creek through kits to the Fraser river to carry oil by rail.

Bet those bitches wished they had welcomed the trans mountain with open arms. Either way less flying for pipeline assembly and inspection

Most of them hippies have no clue half those ships they like to look at in the harbor for all these years have been hauling oil, and those tanks near SFU ain't for catching sunshine.

Bit of a jump from "the company is considering putting the spur railway back into service" to 'carrying oil by railway', no?

You'd think, that if transporting oil for export by rail was the preferred method, that any potential port would be on deep water, so that large tankers could access it (Fraser River isn't deep water) and close to a rail mainline so that large volumes of oil could be transported at a time (Arbutus spur isn't set up at all for lots of rail traffic).

Nice try at a wind-up, though..

Actually North Shore, in order to qualify for a nice try for a windup it has to at least have the potential to be taken seriously, which requires some basic English writing skills.
