Alberta’s Notley heads to Toronto, U.S. to build support for pipelines
EDMONTON – Alberta Premier Rachel Notley says she will soon be heading to Toronto and New York to rally support among business leaders for the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.
Notley says she will also take her message to a meeting of U.S. and Mexican governors and Canadian premiers in early May.
The premier says it’s imperative to keep up pressure to get the Trans Mountain expansion completed so that more oil can move from Alberta to the coast.
The British Columbia government says it is concerned about the ramifications of oil spills and has been fighting the Kinder Morgan project.
