I think a lot of you are missing why this is important. Keystone xl was supposed to deliver millions of barrel per day when here, in Canada, all of trains are delivering about 150k barrel day, even if the amount of transportation by train was multiply more then 10 times in the last 5 years and is currently near the limite of our rail...
Trains and trucks cannot transport oil on the same scale as a pipeline! Thats why rejecting Keystone xl is a good move for the environment, ultimately, it will limite the net amount of tar sand that is extraction.
