Gulf of Mexico to bring warmer weather to Canada.

The term “Pacific inflows for Canada” could refer to the movement of air or water from the Pacific Ocean toward Canada. These inflows can have various impacts on Canada’s climate, weather patterns, and marine ecosystems.

When a Pacific inflow causes extreme weather in the US, it can also impact Canada as it rises through. The movement of air or water from the Pacific Ocean toward Canada can lead to changes in Canada’s weather patterns, potentially bringing storms, precipitation, or shifts in temperature. These inflows can influence Canada’s climate, weather conditions, and marine ecosystems, and may result in a variety of impacts across different regions of the country.

Trans Mountain Expansion,, TMX is a pipeline that is a twinning of an existing one that comes from the Edmonton Alberta area and brings Alberta crude west through Burnaby to refineries in the US that process and distribute oil products into the free market. Trans mountain works on a tariff system that it charges producers to transport the crude to destinations. They do not own the oil.

Know as the trans-mountain apartments,

Owned by the Government of Canada.

The 60 year oil company that was the Trans Mountain Pipeline was bought the Trudeau Government from US investors to ensure that the national interest of its bringing oil from Alberta was secure against the “oppression of the majority” and other dynamics of the provincial interest of big against small, wealth transfer, strategic supply of the needed chemicals for energy, food , medicines, and the sovereign Canadian ability to mange its own.

Trans Mountain pipeline was commissioned in March 1951, after an act of the Canadian Parliament created it.

Trans mountain pipeline was born in the public interest, moved in and out of public control over its life time and at this time remains steadily in Canadian public control, at least until completion of and the maturity of its role in the supply line. The standards of construction and maintenance may exceed what is generically called an oil pipeline elsewhere in the world, which is good we believe. The following videos are produced by Trans Mountain however they are film and can be easily verified by interested.

Climate Change Emergency.

The discourse of the current federal election has some candidates calling global warming as an emergency situation. We agree that the demands of human population is making for all kinds of emergency situations and they all need attention. The carbon thing is to be addressed by emissions controls after use and requires industry to do it if other needed dynamics are not to be neglected.

Insurance

Some are calling for the insurance industry to not give insurance to the TMX operations, in an effort to stop the construction. We have not researched who may be providing insurance to the operations. However for those that find comfort in the fact that insurance company’s often partner by under writing projects we would remind you that the Canadian Government self insures its operations as do some large corporations and because the TMX operations are government owned its a mute point to try to undermine its construction by that kind of boycott

Sense of place

The way the expansion and indeed the continuation of life on earth should not violate our peoples sense of place or belonging.. Three generations have come along of people that directly benefited from Trans Mountain operations, sense of place is well established with these, we hope that those that are not at arms length will try to and speak out when needed, to support the good things, that may come to the people in the macro sense.
