He says the movement of Alberta oil to the west coast "makes sense to me" because it’s about broadening the country’s access to more international markets.

The message from Canada's ambassador to the U.S., delivered at a conference in Ottawa alongside his U.S. counterpart Kelly Craft that was dominated by pro-oil businesspeople, seemed to be aimed at those who continue to protest the development of fossil fuel infrastructure across North America.

On the last stop of his cross-country tour in Nanaimo, Justin Trudeau threatened to ditch NAFTA, kicked out three protesters, and left the venue chased by a mob shouting “Stop Kinder Morgan!”

Alberta Premier Rachel Notley's promise to suspend electricity talks with British Columbia over a pipeline dispute may not carry much weight, according to energy experts.

Canada's oil and gas producers are struggling to stay competitive with their U.S. counterparts because of the struggle to expand pipeline capacity, says a new report from the C.D. Howe Institute.

Trans Mountain's representative, Thanh Nguyen, was unable to provide documents that fit Burnaby's eight-bullet criteria of what constituted an environmental impact assessment.

"Paternalistic," "inadequate," and "unrealistic." These are some of the words peppered throughout memos prepared for Canadian Natural Resources Minister Jim Carr regarding the federal government's efforts to consult with First Nations about Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project.

Alberta Premier Rachel Notley arrived at the doorstep of federal power today to deliver a stern message to the Trudeau government on the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion: “step up.”

The procedure would be a departure from the NEB's previous treatment of Kinder Morgan.

The Trudeau government has declined to intervene in the case.
