"Northern Gateway Revival? Danielle Smith Just Cornered B.C. — Eby’s Silence Says Everything"

Their exchange encapsulates more than a pipeline dispute. It’s a clash over economic futures, environmental values, and the very idea of what Canada should be in the 21st century.

Smith, for her part, makes no apology for championing Alberta’s energy sector. She points out that Canada is sitting on one of the world’s richest reserves of heavy oil. She notes that markets in South Korea, Japan, and beyond are hungry for energy, and she insists that the Port of Prince Rupert offers the most direct, cost-effective access to Asia. In her view, reviving the Northern Gateway project—cancelled under former prime minister Justin Trudeau in 2016—is not just about pipelines. It is about restoring confidence, creating jobs, and ensuring that the wealth generated by Alberta’s oil sands benefits all Canadians.

In the days before that conference, Smith spoke to reporters about fast-tracking the project. She said the direct route through B.C.’s northern coast is unbeatable. Time and again she emphasized that “we need certainty” for investors. She pointed to the fact that Trans Mountain’s expansion is operating at around 80 percent capacity and urged that instead of leaving that infrastructure underutilized, Ottawa and the provinces should collaborate to maximize what already exists and then move forward with a new conduit to tidewater. She made the case that without new pipelines, Alberta’s oil will continue to fetch a significant discount, costing Canadian consumers, workers, and governments billions in lost revenue#CanadianPolitics #MarkCarney #PierrePoilievre #DanielleSmith #CanadaElection2025 #Trudeau #AlbertaPolitics #TrueNorthReport #PoliticalEducation #canadanews
