The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday edition that a draft list of 32 major projects that could be candidates for fast-track approvals under the new Building Canada Act includes a new oil pipeline from Alberta across British Columbia to the Pacific coast. The Globe's Bill Curry writes that such a project is a priority for Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, but the B.C. government has questioned the cost of such a pipeline and said it needs pipeline-company sponsorship, not taxpayer money. Ms. Smith has said she is working with oil companies on a new pipeline proposal and that she is confident she can convince B.C. Premier David Eby of public funding. The draft list describes potential projects based on proposals Ottawa has received from premiers and other groups in recent months. It is not meant to be a final list, and it does not imply that any of the projects mentioned have been approved for inclusion, but it does provide a sense of the options on the government's radar. Prime Minister Mark Carney has suggested building new infrastructure for ports, including those at Churchill, Man.; the Port of Montreal in Contrecoeur, Que.; and on the East Coast. Also on the list is high-speed rail linking Toronto and Quebec City.
