The Dilbit Pipe Chronicles (ctd)...Mr. Scheer Follows Ron Down The Rabbit Hole, Obviously.

On Saturday we pointed out that Mr. Mason of the Globe has concluded that Mr. Trudeau would be blamed by Albertans, regardless, even if he does succeed in getting the pipeline built.

What's it all about this time Alfie?

Well...

Noted obviousologist Andrew Scheer, as quoted by Mike de Souza in his excellent NatObserver piece published Sunday, explains (and amplifies) the Ron's thinking for all to behold:

..."I believe conversations around using taxpayers' dollars to backstop the project is a result of the crisis that we're in, that is of the prime minister's own making," Scheer said. "Had he seen the lay of the land politically in British Columbia and quickly referenced any jurisdictional questions to the Supreme Court back in the fall, had he not brought in Bill C-69, which further destabilized the investment community's confidence in these type(s) of project, we very well may not be under the May 31 deadline."...

Gosh.

Is it possible that somebody's very best Western affairs columnist really does have his finger on the pulse of the political zeitgeist....errrrrrrr...the finest of the fine folks whispering sweet nothings in his ear?
