Poilievre raises doubt about pipeline after Carney’s Alberta deal to raise industrial carbon prices

From Global News.

A day after the federal government struck a deal with Alberta to raise industrial carbon prices, clearing a major hurdle toward building a new crude oil pipeline to B.C., Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre raised doubt if the pipeline will actually be built.

“As for a pipeline, we want to see it happen. We’re holding out hope. We want one built, but so far there’s no permit, no route, no indigenous consultation, no starting point, no end point, no construction date, no nothing. Just a lot of announcements and reannouncements,” Poilievre said on Thursday while speaking in Concord, Ont.

He added, “So we want Prime Minister Carney to announce tomorrow that he will permit a pipeline to the Pacific within 100 days of getting Alberta’s application and that that pipeline will be under construction before this Christmas.”
