Canadians can’t afford Mark Carney’s delays on a new Pacific coast pipeline.
That is why today Conservatives have forced a vote in the House of Commons on a motion for a new oil pipeline to the Pacific coast, overriding the tanker ban to ship bitumen to Asia.
Motion:
“…supports the construction of one or more pipelines enabling the export of at least one million barrels a day of low emission Alberta bitumen from a strategic deep-water port on the British Columbia coast to reach Asian markets including through an appropriate adjustment to the Oil Tanker Moratorium Act, while respecting the duty to consult Indigenous Peoples.”
Conservatives know that shipping a million barrels a day to Asia at world prices would boost take-home pay and make Canada more self-reliant.
But the Carney Liberals keep blocking progress, offering Alberta promises while catering to their “keep-it-in-the-ground” caucus.
Mark Carney said he would build big projects at “speeds not seen in generations,” But after eight months, it’s been nothing but paperwork and press conferences. Photo ops don’t build pipelines.
Ottawa has the constitutional power to approve interprovincial pipelines. Mark Carney and the Liberals must get out of the way: approve the permit, unlock private investment, and get Canada’s energy to the world while creating paycheques at home.
Conservatives will keep fighting for higher paycheques, lower costs, and a secure, sovereign Canada.
