ENERGY EAST SABOTEURS WANT RECONCILIATION WITH ALBERTA

In an open letter this week, Quebec’s government house leader, Jean-Marc Fournier, surprisingly called for “reconciliation” with Alberta following the cancellation of the Energy East pipeline project.
It’s a brazen pitch for a province that didn’t miss a chance to sabotage it.
Montreal Mayor Denis Coderre’s famous last words, that the project’s cancellation was “an enormous victory,” will be forever etched in Alberta’s collective consciousness as confirmation that Energy East was sacrificed by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to accommodate Quebec, which mobilized against it, and where the Liberals need votes in the next federal election.
Nevertheless, Fournier maintains in an Oct. 23 letter that “TransCanada’s termination of the Energy East project is not due to Quebec’s position.”
