"The proposed legislation would allow the Carney cabinet to make regulations to modify federal regulatory requirements for all projects determined to be in the country’s national interest.

He said national interest projects will include “pipelines that make sense,” clean energy grids, trade corridors, nuclear facilities, critical minerals and carbon-capture facilities"

    Doomberg was saying Carney was going to run for election in order to push pipelines through Quebec for a while now, using a separation crisis to do so. All his predictions seem to be coming true.

      What separation crisis? Alberta having a hissy fit over the election is hardly a crisis, and anyway, Quebec doesn’t give a shit. Quebecers themselves do support a pipeline, so I don’t think you can say the government will “push” anything through.

      You don’t want to be on the opposite side of pissed off Montréalers. They riot like the French and would fiercely fight any attempts by the feds to force a pipeline on Québec. The entire Bloc Québécois would have their back too. Bad idea.

      Liberals wouldn’t get a seat in Quebec for years…
