well my message got erased and now i'm demoralized lol. here's the gist of it:
Enbridge's 'northern gateway' pipeline which is the pipeline going to the bc coast is not expected to be completed till 2016. Obama is not a dumbass, as you put it. The US is simply biding its time with us until they're in a better scenario, politically. They push us around because they know they can. Sending oil across the border is easier than shipping it overseas. I gotta admit I dunno where china and such, stand w/ the tar sands though, so I dunno how desperately they want our oil and how much they're willing to pay for it. I was under the impression china produces a heckuva lot of their own oil though. From my internship out in calgary this summer, I did learn that they have the some of the best research programs in oil production.
I do think it would be great to lower our dependence on the US and improve relations w/ the other pacific-asian countries (china, japan,etc...). This would be a good time to stand up for ourselves and make a deal elsewhere. I'll believe it when I see it, though.
