Subject: Newfies show the way!
What’s going on?The press tells us that our East Coast cousins are looking
at more offshore drilling ..and maybe Western sourced oil
pipelines,etc.??---Meanwhile we lotus landers dither—and cry out,’no
pipelines’,’no off shore exploration’,’oil tankers are feared’...
Recall the Ocean Ranger(East coast offshore oil exploration platform)
disaster of 1982 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Ranger
) . Well I guess the East Coast leaders and oil folks have more confidence in
their ability to learn from their experience and move on? Maybe we ‘lotus
landers’ should just get ‘off the POT’!
Come on BC..let’s progress. Yes,we don’t want ‘yahoos’, running the
show—but we’ll accept organizations that are willing to demonstrate their
Corporate bona fides—starting at the top!
Point: Our natural resources have supplied Canadians and much of the world
with valuable natural resources—we live with a relatively high standard of
living as a result.There are risks and rewards—Those complaining are often the
very same folks that want more ‘free government services’ but forget that those
‘free services’ arrive because of risk takers and hard working folks(you
know—parents and grandparents!)
Yes—young people should challenge and demand answers—together the
entrepreneurs ,leaders should be ‘steered’ into developing progressive new
opportunities to create a better social environment.
Some will profit—some will lose---but progress stops when we give up
trying.
The horse and buggy era sounds great—but who’s going to clean up that
mess?
