This guy's a ****ing genius.
He will be getting praise for making the right call for each pipeline project.
Trudeau Sets November Deadline for Enbridge Pipeline Decision
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government has given itself a two-month window to decide on Enbridge Inc.’s Northern Gateway oil pipeline after declining to appeal a legal ruling that revoked its construction permits.
A cabinet order, dated Sept. 23, enacted Natural Resources Minister Jim Carr’s recommendation to set the Nov. 25 deadline for a decision on how to proceed with Gateway. Trudeau also has to decide on Enbridge’s Line 3 project on or before that same day.
The two Enbridge projects are among the raft of energy decisions Trudeau will make this fall -- including this week’s approval of Petroliam Nasional Bhd’s Pacific NorthWest liquefied natural gas project. Trudeau must also decide on Kinder Morgan Inc.’s Trans Mountain pipeline expansion by Dec. 19.
“Given the complexity of the proposed Northern Gateway Pipelines project, this extension provides the Government with additional time to consider next steps in response to the Federal Court of Appeal decision,” Alexandre Deslongchamps, a spokesman for Carr, said in a written statement Thursday. The government continues to “work to restore public confidence” in Canada’s environmental and regulatory system, he added.
Trudeau is said to have decided to approve at least one new oil pipeline in his first term, with Kinder Morgan considered the favorite.
