-- I'd be happy to talk to about it but you know we when you hear these facts and figures from -- you have to consider the source.
It's important to people do their research and and learn about that the truth about tar sands oil and the destructive nature of the -- since themselves as well as the bits and in which is extremely corrosive.
I mean there's you know.
Fifty miles of toxic tailing times.
You know flock of birds -- -- they die immediately.
This is poisoned people down river from it an and -- and no matter how big of a turn.
They take they're not you know avoid the -- allow I prefer which is still endangers the health and well being of American citizens -- And then of course there's that they increased carbon emissions which is that's.
You know.
Maybe at a game over a problem for our for our climate crisis.
OK but if he as he said he's dealing with 60000 homeowners right now and they they want to make sure that their living on property that's not toxic.
Don't you think they have the right I weigh in as well.

Refineries.
In the midwest that are processing tar sands oil right now.
This oil he wants to get down to the Gulf of Mexico -- it can be available for export which will likely cost.
Fuel price increases in them to mid western.
-- well if we don't know if we don't do our are gonna have bottom line -- for shareholders but if we don't not with our arrogance if we don't do it here they're gonna export all of it to China.
That's what they say but they're gonna have trouble getting a pipeline through to Vancouver as well.
