Considering Biden campaigned on this, it should come as a surprise to no one that he’s pulling the plug on KXL. His base demands it.

That said, this decision will have sweeping impacts on SK’s and AB’s economies, which are already strapped for pipeline and export capacity. https://twitter.com/elisevonscheel/status/1350950318784327680

Yes, diversification is key to supporting our economies on a go-forward basis. We have some of the richest deposits of uranium in the world and yet not one nuclear reactor in our province. Time to get serious about SMRs to support our energy and environmental futures.

To be clear, I’m speaking for myself as a Canadian Tory and a pro-O&G citizen. We should be proud of our resources, but we should also know when to start the pivot after being hit with roadblock after roadblock where pipeline capacity is concerned.
