Federal government faces potential loss if Trans Mountain pipeline sold: PBO
- The federal government may face a loss if the Trans Mountain pipeline is sold, as its estimated worth is less than the construction cost, according to the Parliamentary Budget Officer.
- The pipeline's current estimated worth is between $29.6 billion and $33.4 billion, while the construction cost was $34.2 billion.
- The Parliamentary Budget Officer warns that selling at the estimated value would not cover shareholder equity, resulting in a loss for the government.
