| Canada to MI governor: keeping oil pipeline open is "non-negotiable" |
| 2021-03-09 |
| [DetroitNews] The Canadian government is making waves again about Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's attempt to shut down Line 5, but this time the saber rattling is coming from a cabinet member of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's administration. The federal government won't let Michigan shut down the Line 5 pipeline, Canada's natural resources minister Seamus O'Regan told a parliamentary panel last week that the government won't let Whitmer close the 4-mile-long dual pipeline that runs under the Straits of Mackinac. It is part of a longer pipeline that transports oil and natural gas liquids from Canada through Wisconsin and Michigan into Sarnia, Ontario Province. "We are fighting for Line 5 on every front and we are confident in that fight," O'Regan told a special House of Commons committee on the relationship between Canada and the United States, according to the Canadian Press. Line 5 carries about 540,000 barrels of light crude originating in Alberta and Western Canada through Superior, Wisconsin into the Upper Peninsula, down through the Straits of Mackinac and then east to Sarnia, Ontario. It also carries natural gas liquids that serve as a propane source to the Upper Peninsula and lower Michigan after it is processed in Sarnia. The provinces of Quebec and Ontario, which is across the river from Detroit, would lose thousands of jobs and energy if the 68-year-old pipeline were closed in the wake of Whitmer's November revocation of the pipeline's easement, officials argued. A Canadian mayor suggested it could set off Canadian trade retaliation. |

| #7 Who TF gave Witless the authority to destroy the livelihoods of tens of thousands of families on both sides of the border with a stroke of true pen? Where does this authority come from? What society are we living in? |

| #3 This Line 5 is part of The Enbridge Pipeline System is an oil pipeline system which transports crude oil and dilbit from Canada to the United States. The system exceeds 3,100 mi in length including multiple paths. More than 1,900 mi of the system is in the United States while the rest is in Canada and serves the Athabasca oil sands production facilities. Wikipedia So how can a governor shut down part of a huge pipeline system serving two countries? Oh, that's right! Governor Gretchen! |
