Canada: Carney, Smith Sign Pipeline Deal; Guilbeault Quits

Government-critical narrative

The pipeline deal is a dangerous distraction from real projects that actually create jobs and revenue right now. Renegotiating federal climate policies province by province will trigger a race to the bottom, increase emissions, and create investment uncertainty. No private buyers exist for this phantom pipeline, which lacks a clear route and adequate Indigenous support, and faces an immovable tanker ban on the north coast.
