   I think that you should really buy yourself -- or steal or borrow -- a   
   map of BC. In two previous messages of yours, you could not make the   
   difference between Burnaby and Kitimat. Granted, they're only   
   something like 1400 km apart, so, for some people, the confusion is   
   understandable. Now, you infer that your friend Harper wants to build   
   an oil terminal on Granville Island (for crude or for refined   
   products, you tell us and, if for refined products, please tell us   
   where it would be refined) and transport this oil by train through the   
   Arbutus corridor to the Fraser River. Are you for real?   
      
   In Google or otherwise, check Kitimat, Burnaby, Westridge terminal,   
   Kinder Morgan, Enbridge. And while you're at it, check also Granville   
   Island and, to complete the job, find the point where the Arbutus   
   Corridor meets the Fraser.
