Carney backs U.S.-owned LNG project — but still no pipeline
Carney’s latest energy announcement supports a U.S.-owned LNG project but leaves pipeline expansion off the table, sparking new concerns about stalled Canadian infrastructure
Prime Minister Mark Carney is moving forward with a U.S.-owned LNG project as part of Ottawa’s new fast-track list — but despite the headlines and political branding, there’s still no commitment to building a pipeline to move Canadian energy to global markets.
The LNG proposal involves a U.S.-based company and construction expected to take place largely overseas, raising questions about foreign control, domestic benefit, and why projects outside Canada seem to be advancing while Canadian infrastructure remains stalled.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre argues Carney isn’t announcing anything new — just repackaging old Liberal promises dating back as far as 2017. He also warns Carney will blame B.C. Premier David Eby for blocked pipeline developments, despite the fact federal jurisdiction covers interprovincial pipeline approvals.
Political columnist Lorne Gunter joins the show to unpack the ownership questions, the regional politics, and whether Ottawa’s approach could fuel growing separatist sentiment in Alberta.
