Eby says it’s not him blocking Smith’s oil pipeline, it’s lack of money and proponent

  • British Columbia Premier David Eby said at a Monday news conference in Seoul that he is not blocking Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's proposed oil pipeline to B.C.'s north coast.
  • Eby explained that no pipeline project currently exists because there is no proponent or funding, meaning B.C. cannot approve it yet.
  • He noted the province supports investments and said B.C. already has countless projects aiming to boost Western Canadian prosperity, some possibly involving Alberta.
  • Eby emphasized that B.C. does not reject investment opportunities outright and assured that the government will address the matter if Smith is able to put forward a feasible proposal.
  • This latest response follows Smith's Sunday claim she could convince Eby to approve the pipeline, but until funding and project proponents appear, B.C. maintains its position.
