Mr. Speaker, the Liberal “keep it in the ground” caucus is saying that the MOU with Alberta is not a pipeline approval. There is no project, no route, certainly no consensus, and no private sector proponent.
Now they are conveniently hiding behind the tanker ban, which is preventing us from getting our resources to market. All the while, American tankers are happily sailing right by, from Alaska down to the lower 48.
I have a simple question: Will the Prime Minister lift the tanker ban so we can build a pipeline, or is this just a pipe dream?
