You should have to pay. I fully support their lawsuit. I hope you end up paying more taxes or losing benefits because of it.

How about we use that 15 billion to improve our infrastructure? That would provide more than the 1000 temporary jobs the lawsuit is about.

Will China also sue since that pipeline was intended to go to Texas where it would be exported to Asia?

You would need to find out from Chinese assets like Hunter and Zhoe Xiden.

Well then, I would think if that were the case, Biden would be all for the Keystone pipeline so that we can risk our main aquifers to please China.

Quote:
An obscure and often overlooked agreement called the Canada-China Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement (Fipa).

This agreement, ratified in 2014, was negotiated by the previous Harper government. It was passed without a vote in Parliament. Fipa, which remains in place until 2045, was signed to ensure that China got a pipeline built from Alberta to BC, among other benefits.

By then, China was already investing heavily in the oil sands. In 2009, PetroChina bought a 60% interest in two undeveloped oil sands projects, containing an estimated 5bn barrels of oil. And in 2013, the Chinese state-owned CNOOC purchased the third-largest Canadian oil and gas company, Nexen, for $15.1bn. China needs the oil to help fuel its industrial growth.
Did Canada buy an oil pipeline in fear of being sued by China?

The last thing China wants is an energy-independent USA, which Trump accomplished. That’s why they worked so hard to “elect” their Marxist agent Xiden.

FYI, China is invested in the Keystone Pipeline!

Quote:
So who will benefit from Keystone XL? Companies backed by the Chinese government have recently become some of the biggest players in Canadian tar sands development, investing nearly $30 billion over the past few years. China now holds 100 percent of Nexen, a tar sands and shale gas company, and also has major stakes in McKay River, Dover, Long Lake and other Canadian tar sands projects. And the Keystone XL pipeline would give them easier access to Canada's energy resources, providing more power for China's economy and more carbon pollution for the world.
Keystone XL is a Sucker’s Deal For America and a Steal For Foreign Oil Interests
