Not so much Biden to blame, rather Obama, as the line would have been in-service now for a couple of years, which would have helped them now in 2021, in some capacity anyway.

I think this can directly relate to the climate thread. These spiking prices should motivate the American consumer to live with less carbon intensive footprint, the exact reason why our Libs instituted a carbon price. Not to mention, the spiking gas prices in the US doesn’t yet even equal that which Canada is paying with the carbon price included. Yet Biden, who is dead set on transitioning his auto industry to electric, is now pleading with once sworn enemies to produce more oil to help the common American. It just seems outright backwards to Biden’s agenda. The spiking prices, driven by the free market, is something one would think Biden would welcome with open arms, but it’s obviously completely opposite. Imagine, a free market that doesn’t require an additional tax, that would naturally motivate the consumer to more efficient means of travel. Anyway, it does show the outright dependence society has on the product, especially the US.
