Alberta Premier Jason Kenney and Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe are urging U.S. President-elect Joe Biden to meet with Canadians and reconsider his reported decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline quickly after taking office.

On Sunday, CTV News reported that documents from Biden’s presidential transition team show that he intends to cancel the US$8-billion pipeline project as soon as his first day in office.

“It’s our hope that the Biden administration will listen to the merits as to why this pipeline is necessary.” While Moe stopped short of suggesting legal action, he did mention cancelling this deal would make for a rocky start to Canada’s relationship with the incoming administration. Meanwhile, Kenney also suggested Biden should consider the relationship between Canada and the U.S. before ultimately blocking the pipeline.

“Surely, the relationship between Canada and the United States is worth at least having that discussion,” he said. “I believe as the most important ally and trading partner of the United States, that the United States government owes Canada the respect to at least sit down with us and talk about this vital project in the broader context of our shared challenge of addressing climate change, continental energy security and broader issues.

Awe. That too bad you environmental parasites might have to go get a real job

CTV belongs to the mainstream media who supported Biden , tell the public your guys’ feeling , can this call Karma ?

Don’t bother. There’s zero future in oil. At least not enough you should focus and budget on it. Even more concerning, is where is everyone suppose to work? Just blindsided by COVID, change came much sooner than I figured it would.

Alberta needs to get their heads out of the (tar) sands and recognize that the world is changing.

Consider resigning, Moe.

He hasn't even taken office and already messing things up

Trump supporting conservatives. Sad. No more political contributions aka kickbacks from big oil Moe.

Somebody has to JustinTrudeau never will. He gets want he wants. Destruction of the West!

On the USA news they had a LONG list of what Biden was going to do in his first 30 days and there was no mention of Keystone. This was on several different USA channels. Seems to be something the CBC started here.

Is this for show?😂 Because I can't see Biden changing all his economic and environmental policies for some loud mouth premiers in Canada.
