Oral Testimony to the US Congress
Subcommittee on Energy and Power hearing entitled
“H.R. 3, the Northern Route Approval
Act.”
April 10, 2013
The State Department assumes
that future production of the Alberta oil sands will be the same even if it
denies construction of Keystone XL. Yet a great deal of evidence contradicts
this assumption. Ironically, much of this evidence comes not from environmentalists,
but from industry analysts, Canadian politicians, and even the oil sands
producers themselves.
