      Good. Over 50% of Canada wants this. Green light the project and set a clear path for private investment to decide if the project is viable or not… I bet it doesn’t get picked up in this current environment. Transmoutain had to have direct government ownership to get done. This will show Alberta that oil isn’t the only industry to bet an entire economy/goverment spending around.

      Until there is an industry backer putting up some money its all a very moot point. This is just Pierre and his usual performative politics trying to stay relevant.

      Seems like another pointless showboat gimmick from PP.

      Why would the Liberals vote on something they already agreed to but without the extra environmental protections. SMH.

      I can hear his indignant voice going on about this without even hearing it. I’d much prefer never having to actually hear it again.

      *“The only thing that needs to happen for the project to go ahead is for the federal government of Mark Carney to get out of the way. Grant a permit and let the construction begin,“ Poilievre said in an interview with CBC News on Sunday afternoon.*

      Predictably for Poilievre, this is a lie designed to obfuscate the true purpose of his motion (after all, there is currently no proposal for a pipeline outside of the hypothetical one suggested in the MOU). This is just fodder for him to claim the Liberals don’t *really* want a pipeline and expose fractures in caucus. And he isn’t even being subtle about it:

      *Poilievre said if every Liberal supports his party’s motion, then „maybe we can get some shovels in the ground.“ But if there are detractors, it would mean „there is no commitment“ by the Liberal government to actually get a pipeline going.*

      There’s the all or nothing thinking spouted by productive members of government – unless EVERYONE agrees, it’s a failure.

      The sooner this smug prick is out of politics the better.

      For this to be viable a lot of things must go right. If it is to be built it will be the Feds doing so. Otherwise it will simply take too long.

      I think PP would benefit from bragging about how he was the reason for the liberal party implementing the pipeline. Right now he just seems like a complainer. First it was “why wasn’t a pipeline announced?” Then it was “this is just an announcement and they aren’t serious.” Now it’s “let’s see if they will put up or shut up about the announcement.” And next it will be something else.

      If he said “this is a good announcement but i want to remind everyone that this is something i have been saying for years. If Carney wants to steal my ideas then i suggest he implements them faster because Canadians are tired of him taking months to do something i would’ve done immediately.” Instead he just sounds like a complainer who is crying on the sideline that nothing is ever good enough.

    7. > „The only thing that needs to happen for the project to go ahead is for the federal government of Mark Carney to get out of the way. Grant a permit and let the construction begin,“ Poilievre said in an interview with CBC News on Sunday afternoon.

      Grant a permit to whom exactly?

      > The motion also mentions „an appropriate adjustment to the Oil Tanker Moratorium Act, while respecting the duty to consult Indigenous Peoples.“

      As per the MoU, this would only be necessary if a planned and approved route were to require it.

      But there is no route. No plan, no private company behind this.

      I don’t even know why they’re so adamant about tankers in the Hecate Strait which is a horribly bad idea.
