I'm sorry, but I don't have much time left.
I understand your answer. However, we must look at today's world in a realistic way, as it stands. The world as it stands shows that the federal government paid for the most recent pipeline infrastructure built. It cost $34 billion, and not a single company wanted to purchase or even develop the project. That's not all. We're currently still paying seven dollars for every barrel that uses the Trans Mountain infrastructure.
I wonder how a private company, without public support, can agree these days to develop a pipeline infrastructure that will take years to build. Over the next 20 or 30 years, will a market for Alberta oil justify the investments made by private companies? Shouldn't we expect these people to rely on public investment to build new pipelines? That's my impression, based on the world as it stands.
I would like your opinion on this topic. I don't see any developers willing to invest in pipeline infrastructure.
