Summary
Alberta’s government is racing to submit its controversial $1 million barrel-per-day west coast pipeline proposal to Ottawa by July 3rd, alongside a delayed carbon price hike to $130/tonne by 2040. But with no firm commitments from oil producers to use the pipeline, mounting environmental and First Nations concerns—especially around BC routes, tanker bans, and consultation—cast doubt on its viability. The deal also ties the carbon capture Pathways project to the pipeline, with cost-sharing talks still ongoing. Missing the deadline may not be surprising, but it underscores deeper questions about Alberta’s ability to deliver on big infrastructure promises.
