Joe Oliver: Trudeau paved the way for Biden’s rejection of Keystone

Under Trudeau’s leadership, the government is deliberately squandering a stupendous legacy — the third largest proven oil reserves in the world

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau got a taste of his own medicine when on Inauguration Day, President Joe Biden dealt a body blow to the Canadian energy industry by cancelling the partly-built $8-billion Keystone XL (KXL) pipeline. What Biden did to our country was hardly different from what Trudeau had inflicted on us before. And for the same fatuous and hypocritical reasons.

Leadership? Trudeau is a traitor who betrayed Canada.

Canada’s natural resource minister rebuffed calls to issue sanctions on the United States over President Joe Biden‘s move to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline expansion.

“Madame Speaker, I have not yet heard a single argument that would convince me that a trade war is in the best interests of our oil and gas workers,” Seamus O’Regan said during an emergency debate in the House of Commons Monday evening.

HARRIS: Killing Keystone, Biden’s gift to Trudeau

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney is right to charge the federal government with being weak in their response to President Joe Biden’s decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline.

Considering that it will cost Canada billions of dollars and thousands of well-paying jobs across the country, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s statement that, “we are disappointed but acknowledge the President’s decision to fulfil his election campaign promise” is pretty weak tea.

Canada didn’t start Keystone XL dispute — the president did, Kenney says in rebuke of Biden

Alberta’s premier has offered another sharp rebuke of the U.S. president’s decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline, going so far as to accuse him of showing “disrespect for America’s closest friend and ally.”

In an interview with The West Block’s Mercedes Stephenson, Alberta Premier Jason Kenney criticized newly inaugurated president Joe Biden’s decision to block the US$8-billion cross-border energy project on his first day in office.

Inside Alberta’s very bad week: A behind-the-scenes look at the killing of Keystone XL

EDMONTON/CALGARY – The Alberta government’s trade office in Washington, D.C. called home last week with grim tidings: Rumours were circulating the U.S. capital that President Joe Biden was planning to scrap the Keystone XL pipeline on his first day in office.

It set off a wave of alarm. The Alberta government worked through the weekend to prepare its response strategy and a flurry of phone calls were placed between Ottawa, representatives in Washington and to the TC Energy headquarters in Calgary. On Sunday, news outlets reported on a Biden team transition memo that said the death of Keystone XL was coming.

The fix was in. KXL’s cancellation fits the LPC agenda perfectly. Impoverish Canadians and call it building a “sustainable green economy.”

With Keystone XL effectively dead, where does Jason Kenney go from here?

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney has spent the last number of days calling for consequences and compensation in the aftermath of U.S. President Joe Biden revoking the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline.

But Canada’s options appear limited, and are unlikely to include the introduction of sanctions, as the premier has suggested.

In an interview Saturday on CBC’s The House, Canada’s ambassador to the United States even said it was time to let the project go in favour of other pressing bilateral issues.

The fix was in.

Isn’t it great that the oil from Canada will now be moved by trains and trucks?

Now that the Keystone XL pipeline is canceled by President Joe Biden, the world is supposedly greener.

Really? Fact is, it’s the opposite. Instead of getting more environmentally friendly, the carbon footprint from that oil will be increased substantially because it will be shipped by trucks and trains above ground instead of through underground pipe. It is also much less safe and efficient: shipping by trucks and trains means more accidents — and an increased human cost. What sheer brilliance! I thought all of Biden’s decisions were going to be based on facts and science.

David Staples: Will the United States choose Alberta crude or go with massive job losses and dictator oil?

This is an alarming moment for Alberta, with the Keystone XL pipeline axed by U.S. President Joe Biden and green activists keen to see the death of more pipeline projects.

Several major targets are crucial to Alberta’s future, the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion to Burnaby, B.C., and Line 3, which moves Alberta crude down to Minnesota and Wisconsin.

Rex Murphy: Were I an Albertan today, I’d be asking: What’s the point?

I’d be asking, how long are we going to put up with being mauled and mocked and stymied and blocked, by forces within Canada and without?

He couldn’t wait.

Joe Biden didn’t let the sun set on his first day as president before coming down like a ton of bricks on Alberta. Almost with his first breath, he smashed Keystone XL.

Justin Trudeau is Happy to let Joe Biden lead him by the Nose

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau could have quite easily fought to keep the Keystone XL pipeline project alive; it may have only taken a bit of pushback against President Joe Biden to make it clear the pipeline project is vital in maintaining the Canada-US trade relationship, but Trudeau provided zero resistance.

The other day Trudeau when called by Biden to discuss the Keystone XL pipeline cancellation simply said that he understood Biden needed to fulfill a campaign promise and was “disappointed” that his administration was cancelling it.

3 Harmful Consequences of Biden Killing the Keystone XL Pipeline

President Joe Biden wasted no time after Wednesday’s inaugural ceremonies before getting to work. He signed 17 executive orders and memorandums—by far the most in history on a president’s first day—one of which halted construction of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, which would have carried crude oil from Canada through the US.

TC Energy suspends work on Keystone XL as Biden plans to scrap permit today

TC Energy says it’s suspending work on the Keystone XL pipeline in anticipation of incoming U.S. president Joe Biden revoking its presidential permit Wednesday.

Biden is expected to revoke the permit for Calgary-based TC Energy’s pipeline in a flurry of executive orders after being sworn in as U.S. president on Wednesday.

Plans to revoke the permit for the $8 billion pipeline on Inauguration Day were first revealed by CBC News on Sunday and sent shockwaves through Alberta.

Canada pushes back on Biden plan to cancel Keystone XL pipeline

Canada is pushing back on President-elect Joe Biden’s reported intention to cancel the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline, which bridges the U.S. and Canada’s main oil-producing province, Alberta.

In an effort to save the project, Canada is threatening to seek damages over the pipeline, which has been in construction for the past half-decade.

US president-elect Joe Biden plans to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline permit, the fourth phase of a major oil transportation system between Canada and the US, by executive order during his first day in office. Canadian politicians are already expressing their concerns about how it could affect the country’s economy.
