Premier David Eby criticized Ottawa’s discussions with Alberta and Saskatchewan regarding a proposed oil pipeline to B.C.’s coast, arguing that B.C. should have been included in the talks. He mocked the project, predicting its failure and calling it a distraction from Alberta’s political troubles. Eby expressed frustration at speculation about tanker traffic exemptions from the moratorium, advocating instead for upgrades to existing infrastructure. Despite his criticism, he acknowledged B.C.’s need for federal support in funding major projects like the North Coast hydro transmission line.
