It is all BS. Most or all of the 'information' we get is half-truths and speculation by people who don't get paid if they don't make some noise or spill some ink.
I remember when people, asked about things like this, used to say, "Your guess is as good as mine."
But there is no money in that for the chattering classes.
Dead air. Blank pages. No money.
Look away.

Aren't they just wonderful! Her add to post is interesting. I have a son working on a pipeline in B.C. that was approved many years ago that I hadn't heard of as it never makes the news. Previously he worked on Trans Mountain which was major news daily.
