ALIAKBARI / MEJIA: LNG opportunities slipping away due to Ottawa’s regulatory burden
The Carney government recently approved its first major pipeline project — Enbridge’s Sunrise expansion of the West Coast natural gas pipeline. While Energy Minister Tim Hodgson said this proves that Ottawa is getting projects approved and built, one approval doesn’t change the broader picture. Canada is still moving too slowly to unleash its potential as a leading supplier of natural gas, and until the government scraps its Trudeau-era policies, big opportunities will remain out of reach.

Canada has cleared the central obstacle to a new oil pipeline from Alberta to the Pacific coast by striking a deal with British Columbia that locks in the northern tanker ban and commits federal compensation for environmental risks. The 1-million-barrel-per-day pipeline through the Trans Mountain corridor, estimated at 35 billion to 44 billion, is designed to open Canada's oil to Asian buyers amid mounting US trade pressure.
