Washington Post: AT LEAST its over. President Obama rejected the Keystone XL oil pipeline on Friday, ending an unseemly political dispute marked by activist hysteria, GOP hyperbole, presidential weakness and a general incapability of various sides to see the policy question for what it was: a mundane infrastructure approval that didnt pose a high threat to the environment but also didnt promise much economic development. The politicization of this regulatory decision, and the consequent warping of the issue...

Guardian: The Obama administrations decision to kill the Keystone XL pipeline met with disappointment and derision though little surprise in Calgary, the boomtown-turned-bust capital of Canadas oil industry. It also induced some provincial angst as Alberta attempts to open new markets for a product that floats rough 50% of its economy. A lot of people feel that the industry is down and keeps getting kicked, said Jonathan Denis, a former Alberta attorney general and assistant energy minister. The...
