Eby’s Deceitful Tanker Plan

David Eby is playing a dirty game of Truth and Lies, leaving innocent bystanders having to either believe what he says, and in typical lawyer jargon, lies appear truthful, and tactfully hides facts that prove the opposite.  Let me walk you through it, first we will look at what he said, then we will look at truth. We will keep this short and unlike Eby we will not exclude the facts, that include “Pipeline Push: Majority of Canadians, including B.C. residents support the idea of a pipeline to the north coast.” As we will show in this article that Eby and the NDP are creating a lot of hysteria over imaginary scenarios.

 

Starting with what Eby and Coastal First Nations said.

 

 

Nathan Cullen makes it explicitly clear, if you support pipelines and oppose tanker bans you are divisive, based on the latest polls that means the majority of citizens in British Columbia,  but if you oppose pipelines you are working towards unity, what a scumbag, such a dirty way to suggest if you agree with Cullen and the NDP you can pat yourself of the back, but if you have differing opinions then you are part of a problem that must be silenced.  See the Liberal/NDP bill to silence you and us here, Bill-C63.

 

Quote from MSN News:

VANCOUVER — British Columbia Premier David Eby and coastal First Nations have signed a declaration calling on the federal government to maintain an oil tanker ban off the province’s north coast.  Eby said Wednesday that one oil spill in the area would destroy billions of dollars in economic activity along the coast, with no technology available to clean it up. “We call on the federal government to recognize what generations of leaders have. We need to protect our coasts in order to grow our economy,” he said. 

 

Now some inconvenient truth.

 

Approximately 20 tankers load at the Valdez Marine Terminal each month, transporting Alaska North Slope crude oil. This amounts to about 240 tankers annually. The only thing the tanker band does is to insure Canada cannot ship Alberta’s oil off the coast of British Columbia north of Vancouver – Washington border. Look at the image above, how is it possible that Eby and these Tides funded Coastal First Nations (elected and not hereditary chiefs) pretend that they are protecting waters that already have 20 tankers every month of the year passing by these same locations on the west side of the BC North Coast.  Eby said  “one oil spill in the area would destroy billions of dollars in economic activity along the coast, with no technology available to clean it up.” is he suggesting that an Alaskan tanker spill off the west coast will head to China and not to the Northern West coast of British Columbia?

Eby so much as declared that the East Cost of Canada has no technology available to clean up an oil spill, what kind of idiot other than a deceitful one would make such a claim?

Next is Eby and these Coastal First Nations leaders suggesting that the West Coast has a much greater risk of an oil spill than the East Coast of Canada does? That west coast aboriginals are more important than east coast aboriginals? One does have to ask that because they either missed telling the public as intentional deceit, or they simply are so uninformed they are not aware of the whole truth. Or could it be compartmentalized truth sells better for Eco radicals than the whole truth?

 

 

In a nutshell, than means there were about 40 Thousand Oil Tankers off the East Coast of Canada in the last decade, without a single incident, if Price Rupert were to have an export facility for tankers and put out as many as comes from Alaska, our North Coast would still only be seeing 480 tankers total combines with Alaska, as compared to 4000 on the East Coast of Canada.

Enough lies and deceit, build those pipeline and ditch the pretentious notion that  banning Canadian oil is a threat to the West Coast, its time to bring unity to Canada, not divisive NDP politics.
