I was not referring to refined petroleum product in my post. I was talking about the transport and refining of crude bitumen, which Alberta currently does not have the capacity to do. But we do have capacity in the gulf states. There IS money and jobs (many of them probably already existing, rather than new) in that. Would you like to see those jobs go abroad?

And yes, I'm perfectly aware that there is a great deal of debate and confusion as to what Keystone XL represents in terms of revenue and jobs, be the existing or new, temporary or long-term.
