KUUJJUAQ — Prime Minister Mark Carney says he will be in Alberta on Canada Day in the evening, just a day ahead of an expected announcement by the province related to its push for a new pipeline.
Speaking with reporters in Kuujjuaq, Que., today, Carney says he has been in close contact with Premier Danielle Smith.
The province has a July 1 deadline to make a proposal to the federal government’s new major projects office to fast-track approval of a new pipeline project.
Carney says it will still take months for the federal government to decide whether to send Alberta’s submission to the new government office.
