Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith are set to make an announcement at 11 am ET Thursday in Fort McMurray, Alta. as Ottawa faces a deadline to decide on a proposed West Coast oil pipeline’s national interest designation. The announcement is expected to focus on the next steps for the proposed West Coast pipeline. The proposed pipeline would carry up to one million barrels of crude a day from Alberta to British Columbia’s coast. If designated a project of national interest, the pipeline could move through federal reviews faster, but would still need final approval before construction could begin.
