  • Minister Steven Guilbeault stated that declining demand for pipelines is not a threat to national unity.

  • He claimed the Trans Mountain Expansion Project (TMX) operates at only 40 percent capacity, a figure contested by energy analysts.

  • Alberta Premier Danielle Smith accused Guilbeault of misleading Canadians and called for Environment Minister Julie Dabrusin to distance herself from his remarks.

  • An economist highlighted that aiming for full pipeline capacity is not an optimal policy goal, as it can lead to economic inefficiencies.
  • So… before we start talking about building an entirely new pipeline, maybe we should maximize the use of existing infrastructure.
