Now TransCanada says it could carry 500,000 to one million barrels per day east, where it could feed a 600,000 to 700,000 barrel-a-day refining market in central and eastern Canada, as well as refineries using another million-a-day on the U.S. eastern seaboard and, potentially, export markets...

I don't think Obama is the moron.

Good news. Keep that trash oil in Canada. Maybe they will come to realize what a mess they’ve created in the sub-arctic.

Can't believe the BS some of you are spouting! Keystone would have made lots of short term jobsm then they'd export the oil and your prices would go up. THe people along the route would take 100% of the risk and get NOTHING.
THat's why Canadians are almost 100% against the pipeline to China. At least a pipeline east would sell OUR OIL to OUR citizens and make refinery jobs here in return for the risk.
