Battle for the pipeline
The intensity of the TMX battle picked up over the past year, escalating when the BC government blocking pipeline development with a blockade of diluted bitumen and a court injunction. Premier Notley declared the Wine War, banning BC wine from Alberta markets. In addition to battling the BC government, Notley has travelled across Canada to convince government and business leaders of the importance of the pipeline and getting Alberta oil to market. Today, Canadians are more on side than ever to build the TMX pipeline.
