The Prime Minister
wants to sell the world
Canadian resourcefulness.
His way of showing others
we have something
they don’t.
Now he discusses with his cabinet
– and the provinces –
how best to ship this unique commodity:
down south through Keystone XL,
westward through the Northern Gateway,
or to the Atlantic Provinces through the Energy East
pipeline.
