Braid: Trudeau sees the sunny side of pipeline collapse

Oh, so that’s it. The pipeline rejection is just a bump in the road. In fact, you could even see it as proof of just how robust the Liberal approval process is.

That’s what a person might think, listening to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Wednesday, as he actually tried to turn this mess into an affirmation of his ideals.. ?& S) n* Q. q7 T

At one point, he slammed the Harper government’s approach and said “the court has just confirmed that was never going to work.”

But the court also agrees with Trudeau on the need for rigour, it seems.

Premier Rachel Notley, distancing herself from her favourite ally, demands a legislative cannonade, a federal bill to reassert the former approval. She decries the “regulatory merry-go-round that isn’t going to help anybody.”2 f0 u" M1 I' a

Trudeau also says that if Ottawa hadn’t bought the project, it would be dead today.
