Building the Keystone XL pipeline is something Donald Trump would like to see done “NOW,” something the U.S. president wrote on his Truth Social platform. The statement got the backing from Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, who said added the countries should be exploring economic opportunities like this instead of engaging in a trade war.
On Tuesday night's episode of The Ezra Levant Show, Edmonton Sun columnist Lorne Gunter joined the show to talk about the reversal from the U.S. after it was cancelled in 2020 during the early days of the Biden administration.
Looking at what the completion of this project could mean for Canada's economy, Lorne said “it's huge.”
“I'd love to see it; 830,000 extra barrels a day to the United States,” he added. “It would increase our exports to the U.S. — one pipeline — would increase our exports to the United States by nearly 20%.”

Bernhard Jatzezck commented 2025-02-26 21:00:49 -0500Trudeau didn’t handle it right. He should have held a years-long dog and pony show, er, inquiry (headed by a sympathetic buddy of his), and listened only to the whiners. The foregone conclusion will, of course, recommend “postponement”, preferably for a phony-baloney reason. After all, that’s what Pierre did for the Mackenzie Valley Pipeline.
It’s not a proper project cancellation unless the “inquiry” wastes a lot of taxpayer money. -
Bruce Atchison commented 2025-02-26 20:39:17 -0500Contracts must be made to ensure that another cancellation of the pipeline will result in hefty fines against the country and personnel who breach the contract. I sure wouldn’t put money into a pipeline which could be cancelled at the whim of a socialist SOB. Such people are terminally stupid.
