Early Days, But Smart Money Says Alberta's Pipeline Gets Built

[testerone]

Analysts note that Alberta appears to be routing the pipeline through communities more supportive of industrial development, even though cheaper alternatives exist.

What a load of total steaming shit.
We're all for economic development but not an oilt pipeline. Nobody along the toute supported the Gaeway proposal. no town, no Band. Even the Smithers Chamber og Commerce took down their pro billnoard.
Conservative lies, lies and more lies, nothing but lies/

There's a multi-villion $ TMX route that Justin paid for, that in years bo one stepped up to take over. The route is there, and a new pipe(s) could be laid alongside it for a fee that would recover some of the cost and be far less than building a new route. And port expansion where it is far less expensive than to buils up North from scratch.

It seems Danielle remains intent on shoving a pipeline up our ass simply to OWN the BC greenies,
She ain't no UCP real Conservatives focus on cost and ROI

She's focused on her masters and what job they will give her once her scandals catch up to her sand she finally resigns.

New oil pipeline will travel through Kamloops on existing Trans Mountain route: Carney
Prime Minister Mark Carney said the federal and Alberta governments have agreed that the best route for the new West Coast pipeline is the one that already exists — the Trans Mountain corridor running from Edmonton through Kamloops to the Lower Mainland.

Carney emphasized:

- The new line will be built by Trans Mountain Corp, with Pembina Pipeline providing private‑sector expertise.
- Indigenous consultations along the route will begin immediately.
- The southern route is now the only viable option after Ottawa and B.C. formally upheld the North Coast tanker ban, eliminating any northern pipeline proposals.

Kamloops becomes a major construction hub again:

The pipeline will physically run through the city, using the same corridor built and expanded during the Trans Mountain twinning project.

That earlier expansion brought $450 million in direct spending to the Kamloops area and $40 million in worker spending during peak years (2022–2023).

Local officials expect years of new construction work and significant economic activity once this project begins.
