Prime Minister Mark Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith have signed a sweeping agreement to pave the way for building a new pipeline to the West Coast and to remove some Trudeau-era energy policies in exchange for additional emission-reduction commitments from the province.
Carney told reporters on Nov. 27 in Calgary that the agreement would create “an energy transition,” with the core of the agreement being to prioritize the building of a pipeline to B.C. to ship oil to Asia. He said this would make Canada “stronger, more independent, more resilient, more sustainable.”
