Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says the province supports Ottawa’s second list of fast-tracked projects and is working with the federal government on an agreement that reflects Alberta’s priorities.
Prime Minister Mark Carney on Nov. 13 announced the second tranche of so-called nation-building projects that will be referred to the Major Projects Office (MPO) for fast-tracking. Like the first list unveiled on Sept. 11, it did not include a bitumen pipeline from Alberta to the B.C. coast–a project Premier Smith has long advocated as a key priority for the province.
