The Only New Border Crossing With Any Hope Now----The PRIVATE One In Windsor/Detroit

Read this story now and you will discover that the petroleum industry between Canada and the US  is in an awkward stage right  now...except for the private business owned by the Moroun Family  between Windsor, Canada and Detroit, Michigan.
 
Funny, no one seems to be talking about that business right now except  me.  And I am of the view that a second Ambassador Bridge Company bridge can be built here and in the US right away to  Windsor's benefit. 
 
With our poor economy and high rate of unemployment, it is something this area absolutely requires for our future success:
 

After Keystone XL: Where Canada goes from here

"When the sword finally swooped down Friday upon Keystone XL, reaction ranged from “extremely disappointed” (Conservative interim leader Rona Ambrose) to “disappointed” (TransCanada Corp. CEO Russ Girling and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau) to rather ambivalent but disappointed in the fact Barack Obama characterized Alberta oilsands as “dirtier” crude (Alberta Premier Rachel Notley).
 
But there was not much surprise in the White House’s bad-news Friday announcement. TransCanada’s eleventh-hour bid for a stay of execution, and Washington’s quick dismissal of that bid, only made the decision appear more imminent and gloomy.
 
But while some in Canada cried over the politics of it all—and the hypocrisy, given the 3.9 million daily barrels of oil that currently flow south of the border—Obama’s decision does let all players hit the reset button and try with success on other pipeline projects, as well as another bid for an expansion of the energy sector’s southbound capacity...
 
As some of those negotiations on oil shipments to the much-needed non-U.S. markets work their way through the system—National Energy Board begins hearings on Trans Mountain are slated for December—there will also come time, sooner rather than later, for TransCanada or another industry player to try breaching the 49th parallel again, with a pipeline that’s a vastly safer and more affordable alternative to expanding rail shipments."
