BC Premier Says Pipeline Pushed By Alberta ‘Many Years Off’

British Columbia Premier David Eby has signalled a lack of interest in a pipeline extending from Alberta to the northern coast of B.C., following Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s push for it at a recent first ministers meeting.

“It’s not my job to come in and tell Premier Smith that her vision for a north coast pipeline is many, many years off and there’s no proponent,” he told reporters in Osaka, Japan, during a trade mission to East Asia on June 3.
