Canada Allows a New Pipeline Outlet to be Built for Alberta's Oil Sands Canadian Prime Minister Carney signed an agreement with the Alberta government to allow a pipeline carrying Alberta’s oil sands to British Columbia for export mainly to Asian markets. The energy agreement exempts the proposed pipeline from some Canadian climate laws. In exchange, Alberta will increase its carbon pricing and develop the world’s largest carbon capture program. A plan for the pipeline is to be submitted by next July, and construction could begin by 2029. The northern Alberta region has 164 billion barrels of proven oil reserves — one of the largest oil reserves in the world. Carney sees the agreement as making Canada more independent, as he aims to double Canada’s non-U.S. energy exports. Prime Minister Mark Carney will lift former Prime Minister Trudeau’s climate laws to allow a new oil pipeline from Alberta to British Columbia’s coast.Carney signeda memorandum of understanding with Alberta’s government, which is a step toward helping transform Canada into a “global energy superpower,” a promise he made during his campaign.

(Jeff McIntosh /The Canadian Press via AP) TORONTO (AP) —Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carneyand the premier of Canada’s oil rich province of Alberta agreed Thursday to work toward building a pipeline to the Pacific Coast to diversify the country’s oil exports beyond the United States, in a move that has caused turmoil in Carney’s inner circle. The memorandum of understanding includes an adjustment of an oil tanker ban off parts of the British Columbia coast if a pipeline comes to fruition. Carney’s support for it led to the resignation Thursday of one of his cabinet ministers, Steven Guilbeault, a former environment minister and career environmentalist who has been serving as the minister of culture. Guilbeault said in a statement he strongly opposes the agreement with Alberta, noting the pipeline could cross the Gr…

Canada and Alberta advance west coast pipeline project proposal and ... Go to the translated article July 2, 2026 Calgary, Alberta Today, the world faces an energy crisis on three levels: our cost of living, our climate, and our sovereignty increasingly depend on a nation’s ability to supply and control its own energy. More than any other country, Canada is positioned to become the leading supplier of clean and conventional energy to ourselves and the world. To harness this opportunity, we need a new approach – one that builds sustainably and in full partnership with provinces, territories, Indigenous Peoples, and the private sector, and at the speed and scale this moment demands. To that end, the Prime Minister, Mark Carney, today announced that the Government of Canada will refer the Government of Alberta’s proposal for a west coast pipeline project to the Major Projects Office (MPO). This pipeline would transport one million barrels per day of oil toward global markets. The proposed route will largely follow the existing Trans Mountain corridor and will fully respect the Oil Tanker Moratorium Act . Canada and Alberta will each share equal partnership in the project, and there w…
