Enbridge

The federal Liberal government is putting Canada's oil and gas industry ahead of the Great Lakes by opposing Michigan's efforts to shut down the Line 5 pipeline, says a prominent group of Ontario First Nations.

The Straits of Mackinac, a “sacred wellspring of Anishinaabe life and culture,” is part of an area ceded to the U.S. in 1836 only upon assurances that the right to hunt, fish and gather would be protected, tribal governments say.

Anti-pipeline activists are accusing Canadian energy giant Enbridge of setting a disturbing precedent by providing funds for policing its Line 3 pipeline in Minnesota — and opponents worry Indigenous women who oppose the project are deliberately being targeted.

The energy needs of Eastern Canada largely depend on a leaky old pipeline operated Enbridge, writes journalist and author Trevor Greene.

Those holding our savings and mortgages and controlling the flow of money into coal, oil and gas — RBC and the rest of Canadian banking gang — need to wake up and smell the CO2, writes Richard Brooks, climate finance director with Stand.earth.

"What can we best do to help Enbridge in your desire to continue operating the line?" Liberal MP Anthony Housefather asked a company executive Tuesday.

The federal government won't let Michigan shut down the Line 5 pipeline, Canada's natural resources minister said Thursday as he dismissed opposition comparisons to the thwarted Keystone XL project.

Construction of the U.S. portion of its Line 3 oil pipeline will cost $1.1 billion more than expected due to regulatory and court delays in Minnesota but the CEO of owner Enbridge Inc. says the project is on track to start delivering "lots of free cash flow" by late this year.

A senior adviser to two former U.S. presidents delivered a stark message on Friday, February 12, 2021, to Canadians hoping for the resurrection of the Keystone XL pipeline: get over it.

Conservative Leader Erin O'Toole urged the acting American ambassador to Canada to tell Washington to preserve the Line 5 pipeline to the United States.

Less than a month after U.S. President Joe Biden nixed the Keystone XL pipeline as part of a sweeping climate plan, another pipeline with implications for Canada is in the crosshairs of a U.S. politician.

Federal Green Party Leader Annamie Paul says rhetoric portrays “false choice” between jobs and environment. 

Canadian Ambassador to the United States Kirsten Hillman has “underscored” to both federal and state-level U.S. officials the importance of “energy security and the free flow of resources over our shared border."

Michigan's environmental agency said Friday it has approved construction of an underground tunnel to house a replacement for a controversial oil pipeline in a channel linking two of the Great Lakes.

A legal battle has erupted over the Enbridge Line 5 pipeline that has spilled into the halls of Canada’s Parliament.
