Carney tells business crowd a new pipeline project is ‘going to happen’
Prime Minister Mark Carney came close to telling a Bay Street audience today that he will secure a new pipeline for Alberta, offering his strongest endorsement yet of the idea.

This plus the federal budget released yesterday & it's official:
For a Climate leader #MarkCarney sure is one hell of a banker.
💥 #CarbonTax
💥 #EmissionsCap
💥 #AntiGreenwashLaw(!)
💥 #TreePlanting
✅ Pipeline
✅ MORE #FossilGas LNG
✅ #CarbonCapture BOONDOGGLE

🚨 Prime Minister Mark Carney and Premier Danielle Smith are dreaming of a new oil tanker and tar sands pipeline project from Alberta to the B.C. coastline. Our response? Hard NO.

Weather is like your mood, while climate is your personality. One cold day doesn’t disprove global trends. In fact, warming can even disrupt weather patterns and cause some of the wild swings we see today!

Carney just signed a deal with Alberta that lays out conditions for a new oil pipeline.
In doing this, he managed to piss off one of his own cabinet ministers (who promptly resigned), coastal First Nations, the B.C. government, the Green Party and the Bloc Québécois.
But uh, here's what he got:

This pipeline will never be built. But trying to build it is still a tragic waste of time and money at a time when we have neither to spare.
Stop wasting money on pipelines. Give us real nation-building projects.

Carney is most definitely a conservative. All of Canada's political parties are right-wing parties, because they all put corporate interests over the needs of working people.
