In less than two weeks Alberta is expected to deliver to the federal government a solid proposal for a pipeline to the northwest coast of B.C. But so far there is no private sector partner willing to come forward to pay for it.
This is definitely a fly in the ointment of a proposal that Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has been flogging for years. She finally got some encouragement from the federal government in a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed by Prime Minister Mark Carney and herself in November.
Carney weighted the “Aboriginal” cost making any project likely to fail.
