Question Period – 2018.02.02 – Pipelines
QUESTION PERIOD
February 2, 2018
Mr. Len Webber (Calgary Confederation, CPC): Mr. Speaker, the B.C. premier shamefully gave his environment minister a mandate letter that ordered him to employ every tool available to prevent the Kinder Morgan pipeline from being built. It should not come as a surprise to the Prime Minister that this is happening. The Liberals have failed on energy east and now they are doing the same on Kinder Morgan. What exactly is the Prime Minister going to do to get the Kinder Morgan built?
Hon. Jim Carr (Minister of Natural Resources, Lib.): Mr. Speaker, this government has approved the Trans Mountain expansion. This government has approved the Enbridge Line 3 replacement. This project and also the support for Keystone XL will give us the pipeline capacity we need. Ten years of Conservative government did not have one kilometre of pipe delivered to tidewater.
