   You couldn't be more right -- at least in your first sentence. It was   
   about Port Metro Vancouver, i.e. ultimately the federal government,   
   taking over the management of Granville Island and about CP Rail   
   intending to clean up the Arbutus Corridor to allow for the eventual   
   reopening of an 11 km portion of the railway. Then someone stated that   
   these two facts fell within the grand plan of the Prime Minister of   
   Canada to export crude oil to the Asian markets. Then a question was   
   asked: How would the Feds' management of Granville Island and the   
   reopening of the Arbutus Corridor help this grand plan? Someone --   
   obviously not an imbecile, at least not in HER mind -- failed to give   
   an appropriate answer. Actually, failed to give any answer at all.   
   Someone else, moi en l'occurrence, could not see the link between the   
   proposed new management of Granville Island, the reopening of 11 km of   
   derelict railway linking Burrard Inlet to the Fraser River and the   
   export of Alberta bitumen crude to Asia, a link that seemed obvious to   
   Madame or Mademoiselle. Was that the topic?   
      
   En passant, this same someone mentioned, in both national languages of   
   this country no less, that Madame or Mademoiselle, in two previous   
   posts, got Kitimat and Burnaby mixed up.
