Ontario and Quebec pipeline agreement
The premiers of Quebec and Ontario say they want a “full-cost accounting” of the proposed pipeline project that would carry crude oil across their provinces. The two provinces have drawn up a list of conditions the project would have to meet to secure their approval. They want the Energy East project to account for the environmental impacts – including increasing greenhouse gas emissions – of the new transportation method.
