US EditionPremiers gathered to meet with PM call for new pipelines built with Ontario steel
ONTARIO, CANADA, JUL 22 – The provinces aim to safeguard thousands of jobs and enhance energy security through coordinated infrastructure projects amid trade challenges, representing a region with $818 billion GDP.
- On July 22, 2025, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe, Ontario Premier Doug Ford and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith signed a Memorandum of Understanding in Ontario's cottage country, coordinating infrastructure to transport oil, gas and critical minerals.

- Following the signing, Doug Ford called it a 'game changer,' as Danielle Smith added 'build real infrastructure and get major projects moving,' and Scott Moe noted it would be 'built by Canadians, for Canadians,'.
- Looking ahead, the agreement is expected to safeguard thousands of jobs, strengthen energy security, and foster sustainable growth across Canada’s economic region of over 11 million Canadians with a GDP exceeding $818 billion.
