Ontario Premier Doug Ford and his Alberta counterpart Danielle Smith are pushing the idea of a new 3,300-kilometre oil pipeline that would run from Hardisty, Alta., to Sarnia, Ont. The plan follows an agreement signed between Ontario, Alberta and Saskatchewan to explore an east-west energy corridor and railway. Ford said Monday the pipeline would be known as the Northern Shield energy corridor and was designed to take advantage of oil refining capacity in Sarnia. The proposed route would go from Hardisty to Regina, Winnipeg and then arc through Ontario, north of Toronto and end in Sarnia.
