[QUOTE="CHEMMINS, post: 7921950, member: 625734"] Umm.... Foreign steel - because the US doesn't make it. Foreign workers - Canadians had the contract to the border than US workers were to take over at the border. Send the oil overseas - Umm....it was to go to US refineries. If it was to go overseas, Canada would just do what they are doing anyway. Sending it to the coast to be shipped out. Condemned Land - Land owners tried gouging the oil companies for prices to cross land. Very common practice. Land owners always forget about royalties they receive after the line is in, and passed. I know....I used to pipeline for a living and had to deal with many landowners. Indians/Natives are the worst to deal with. As far as fair price.....who sets the price. Whoop whoop....they pay for the replacement of crop lost, and for any damages. They have to reseed the land, and return it to as good or better than when they arrived. Plus the land owners get a bonus for the time used for being on the land. Many times a farmer has had his property bypassed because of greed.
