With Monday's announcement from Alberta that new legislation will be enacted allowing the province to restrict the amount of oil and gas products leaving the province, the threat is hanging heavily in the air of a potential blockade against B.C. to put the pressure on in the Trans Mountain pipeline fight.

Many felt it would be unfair of Alberta to put pressure on British Columbians like that.

Others felt it wouldn't be the end of the world, and B.C. could easily buy gas elsewhere.
