Oh, so that’s it. The pipeline rejection is just a bump in the road. In fact, you could even see it as proof of just how robust the Liberal approval process is.

Premier Rachel Notley, distancing herself from her favourite ally, demands a legislative cannonade, a federal bill to reassert the former approval. She decries the “regulatory merry-go-round that isn’t going to help anybody.”4 \0 {1 _5 @% k# C

The job now is to get the project back to where it was last Wednesday, before the court ruling came down.% n; e& Y9 ^; _8 ^, r

It had been signed and sealed. This was an officially approved interprovincial pipeline, ramping up to full construction.: M6 O9 c- q; I# A

Actually, if Ottawa hadn’t purchased it for $4.5 billion in May, the assets would now be a much better buy.
