ISP was pleased to be in attendance in Fort McMurray today as Prime Minister Mark Carney and Premier Danielle Smith announced a new west coast pipeline as Canada's first project of national interest under the Building Canada Act.
The project is paired with the Pathways carbon capture initiative and is projected to create up to 140,000 jobs at peak construction and add more than $20 billion a year to Canada's GDP once operating.
The joint announcement marks a major step in Ottawa and Alberta's shared push to make Canada a global energy superpower, with both governments aiming to have the project shovel ready by September 2027.
