At a paid appearance in Canada, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was asked how she, as president, would work to strengthen America's relationship with our neighbor to the north.

Clinton's interviewer prefaced his question by assuring her "we're not going to talk only about Keystone," referring to the year-long stagnated debate over the Keystone XL pipeline that would deliver Canada's oil from America's northern border down to the Gulf of Mexico.

The debate over Keystone has been discussed for years. Clinton, as a former Secretary of State, should have an extensive working knowledge of the topic. And, as a potential candidate for POTUS, she'll be called on to answer multitudes of hypothetical questions about what she plans to do if she is elected to the highest office in the land.

And yet, when given the opportunity to express her opinion on the topic and bring her vast wealth of knowledge to the discussion (a discussion she was reportedly paid $300,000 to participate in) Clinton dodged and demurred and flatly refused to say where she stands on the topic Keystone:

“You won’t get me to talk about Keystone,” Clinton said. “Because I have steadily made clear that I’m not going to express an opinion. This is in our process and that’s where it belongs.”

Hillary made no mention of what process the Keystone is in or how to strengthen our relationship with Canada.

Last month, Clinton spoke before a group of well-funded environmentalists that assured them was one of them. "Thank you for fighting the good fight, day in and day out,” she said to the group. Of course, one of the "good fights" they are fighting is the fight against the Keystone pipeline.
