Ontario, Alberta, Saskatchewan want to study feasibility of west-east pipeline | CBC News
Briefly

Ontario, Alberta, and Saskatchewan aim to study a new west-east pipeline to transport oil and gas to southern Ontario. The proposed corridor intends to secure long-term energy access, create jobs, and enhance trade opportunities. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith emphasized this corridor would connect Alberta's energy products to new markets. U.S. tariff threats have revived interest in expanding Canadian pipeline capacity to ensure self-reliance in the oil and gas sector. Ontario Premier Doug Ford underscored the importance of building domestic energy infrastructure to safeguard energy security.
"By advancing a Canadian energy corridor from Alberta to Ontario, we are securing long-term energy access for families and businesses, creating thousands of jobs, and opening new doors for trade and investment, while strengthening our position as a global energy leader."
"Canada can no longer rely on energy infrastructure that lies outside of our borders and can be shut down at a moment's notice by another country. It's time for us to build cross-Canada infrastructure within our borders so we can protect our energy security, find new markets for Canadian energy and resources and create new jobs."
