Petronas shaky; CSIS loses re Nuttall case

Hey here it is Friday afternoon and I haven't posted to my "Daily" yet and soon I have to go and see someone so I'd better get at it eh...
But I DO like this format - just write and publish! And thanks to those who read and responded to my first one yesterday in this new new year.

There are quite a few important stories in the news, especially Business in Vancouver reporting that Petronas is trimming its capital projects by $11 billion and that just happens to be the price tag of its proposed LNG plant at Lelu Island near Prince Rupert:

Petronas confirms capital spending reductions

Petronas, the Malaysian energy giant behind the multi-billion dollar Pacific NorthWest LNG project in Prince Rupert, may be planning...

It's far too early to report the project's demise but it IS an eerie omen that B.C.'s strategy of depending on LNG to drive the economy needs to be revised.
Here's the response I posted on BiV's website:

Thanks for the valuable and timely info. IMO this is important confirmation that the market prospects for B.C.'s late entry into the already-glutted global market for LNG are now quickly dimming and combined with other factors such as environmental worries about fracking and the costs of Site C dam and power are turning the whole BC LNG concept into a non-starter, at least not at this time and not at that location (Lelu Island). I'm not saying not ever, just saying not now or not yet. Prove it up better before committing so much of BC taxpayers' money into enabling infrastructure and related costs such as regulatory staff and new electrical power.

There's lots of other important stuff I have opinions on, such as it appearing increasingly obvious that CSIS and the RCMP entrapped and manipulated the simpleton addict John Nuttall into trying to bomb the Victoria Legislature on Canada Day a few years ago, which is the logical conclusion to reach from reports by the Vancouver Sun's ace court reporter Ian Mulgrew.
My surmise is that former PM Stephen Harper was at least aware of it because his Privy Council was in charge of co-ordinating both agencies when the events happened and Steve was a renowned control freak - an amusing example of which we saw in recent days when his former health minister Rona Ambrose came to Vancouver as his interim successor and promptly flip-flopped away from her previous vehement opposition to any legalization of marijuana.
Why would Harper and/or CSIS go to such lengths to manipulate a feeble addict into becoming a radical Islamic bomber? Because Canada as part of the Five Eyes was keen to manufacture consent for both an increased war against Islam (a replay of the Crusaders) as well as increased "security" domestically, i.e. the beginnings of a police state.
The news today - thank you to CKNW - is that the judge in the case has ruled against CSIS's lawyers arguing for continued secrecy about its role in manipulating Nuttall and that's an important victory for democracy and justice in Canada.
Maybe there IS hope.

There's lots more I have to say but I gotta run or else I'll be late.

And hey tell a friend eh that Twigg's Daily is back!
