Newfoundland Gov(Willians) looked into building one capable of refining "sweet crude"(Grand bank oil).. but apparently the some law/fed gov agreement that it cant be built outside of Quebec without there approval..Would have to be challenged in court i believe..

The refinery on the island refines oil from Saudi Arabia and Hibernia oil refined in the US... ...

Yeah it makes no sense.

I think they should screw that pipeline, and build refineries out west and sell the finished products ourselves.... like douchey said.

Send it down to Texas.... and buy it back?

silly.

I didnt' say that... I said it's worse in Toronto and it's a Reason(not the Reason) for their difficulties.

Am I supposed to feel sorry for guys who make millions?



Perform or GTFO.

Am I supposed to believe that most rookies are ripped apart by fans and therefore dont succeed? Are these rookies so oblivious and fragile to think that they wont get chirped by fans and nonfans?

If they cant handle it, theyve picked the wrong profession.

Big Oil all about the coin..

U can buy gas here on the island at the entrance to the refinery and it's always been the same price as what comes from Texas...

LOL I love her in the debates... she's pretty good at sticking it to Harper

(when they let her debate)

- robin_steele264

Well she has a seat now. Some hippie island of BC stopped smoking dope long enough to get her in. So we'll be treated to her loud mouthed antics next election. Yayyy

In the upcoming Alberta election, one Wildrose candidate wrote a blog a year ago about how even though homosexuals are indeed born that way, with the help of God they can be cured. Another said he stands a good chance of being elected because he is white. Good ol Alberta.

Interesting times though. The PCs look to be getting voted out. They've been in power here for over 40 years.

they failed this year because they didnt have a good enough team and were missing key components to a succesful team...not because we booed them.

U can certainly Blame the GM for the wrong coach/players...That said i know how it works for some and they will always try to find excuses other than management..
- Fruitcakenipple


I dont think anyone can really say there was an "excuse" for why they failed...it was, well fact. They simply didnt have a good enough team this year. No excuse...an excuse would be blaming the media/fans. But saying they failed because they sucked...well...thats just fact

They sure do

You are playing a professional sport, that is meant to make money as a form of entertainment for fans. If you suck, I will boo you and if you play well, I will chear for you.

If you cant handle being boo-ed for poor performance, join the Oilers

You kidding me? Oil fans are more than willing to boo. In one case, Penner was actually heckled in a Starbucks.

If you're speaking about the Yankee's.. I want their payroll then.

Can't compare the Rangers and the Leafs. Hockey is the US is like Basketball in Canada.

booing didn't help.

Also what's defined as failure - not winning the cup? Not making the playoffs?
