The oil pipeline proposal currently being developed by Alberta will need the backing of B.C.’s government and First Nations along the pipeline route for it to be built, federal Energy Minister Tim Hodgson says.
Alberta announced Oct. 1 that it would take the lead in crafting a pipeline proposal, with expertise and input from industry leaders, and submit the plan to the federal Major Projects Office (MPO) no later than May of next year. The MPO was created under the Carney government’s Building Canada Act and aims to fast-track approval for projects chosen by Ottawa as being in the national interest.
