“At the moment I don’t know the answer to that. I’m going to proceed as if we’re going to get to an agreement that will be to the benefit of Albertans.”

Had the Northern Gateway, Energy East and Keystone pipelines been built (Keystone was killed by then-U.S. president Barack Obama), Smith said, Canada would be producing 2.5 million more barrels of oil per day.
“That’s $55 billion a year worth of GDP value, which is worth $17 billion to my government alone and about an equal amount to the federal government,” Smith said.
“This is not just an ideological argument, it’s not just a minor disagreement, oil is by far the most valuable export for Canada.
