Canadian Federal Government Says Pipeline Still Important (Wink, Wink) -- April 24, 2018

Canadian federal government kicks pipeline decision down the road. Link here.
Canada has extended the deadline for a decision on whether to push forward with the expansion of the Trans Mountain oil pipeline to June 18 from mid-May.
The Trans Mountain expansion (TMX) project would nearly triple the amount of crude flowing from Alberta’s oil sands to British Columbia’s coast, but has been beset by regulatory delays and opposition from indigenous groups, environmentalists and the government of British Columbia.
Amarjeet Sohi, Canada’s minister of natural resources, said the delay would give the federal Liberal government more time to consult with indigenous groups impacted by the pipeline.
However, Conservative shadow minister for natural resource Shannon Stubbs said the delay meant another summer construction season would likely be missed.
Whatever. 

Line 3: can't remember if I previously posted this. Enbridge says work on Line 3 in Minnesota will be delayed one year
