🇨🇦 Pipeline deadline theatre after Ottawa spent years kneecapping pipelines

The absurd part is not the announcement day circus in Fort McMurray. It is that Ottawa now wants applause for maybe facilitating the very infrastructure the Trudeau era treated like contraband. Mark Carney and Danielle Smith stepping up on a west coast pipeline deadline, as reported, is political damage control dressed up as nation building. After years of regulatory sabotage, carbon fetishism, and elite sermonizing, the same class suddenly remembers Canada sits on energy wealth.

This is what post-Trudeau cleanup looks like: expensive, late, and wrapped in photo ops. A sovereign country does not beg activists, courts, and bureaucrats for permission to move its own resources to tidewater. It builds, sells, and profits. Instead, Ottawa strangled capacity, made us dependent on the U.S. discount, and called it climate leadership while ordinary Canadians paid more and got poorer. If Carney is serious, scrap the anti-energy machinery, stop governing for Davos talking points, and start governing for Canada.
