My only gripe with that is it will open up the floodgates for Alberta Tar Sands oil shipments into the TAPS line. Many will disagree as to the negatives of that, but it is among the worst things we could or should be doing imho, facilitating the commerce of that dirtiest of oils.
Canada could be doing the same (shipping power) with their fracked natgas with a much shorter shipping distance to the markets they are already providing power to. The B.C. government is already gung-ho for their Site C hydropower dam which is further pointed at California markets.
