Alberta Premier Rachel Notley says she is following through with her threat to restrict petroleum shipments to B.C. as the dispute over oil pipeline expansion heats up.

91裸聊视频淲e are introducing legislation to allow us to restrict product to B.C.,91裸聊视频 Notley announced on Twitter Monday afternoon.

Notley reiterated that the Alberta government is willing to invest public money in the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project if necessary, and urged the federal government to 91裸聊视频渇ollow our lead91裸聊视频 to press B.C. to drop its opposition.

Premier John Horgan took every question in the B.C. legislature Monday, rejecting accusations that his continued opposition to the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project is unconstitutional and damaging to the national economy.

91裸聊视频淚 don91裸聊视频檛 give a damn what The Globe and Mail says,91裸聊视频 Horgan replied after the newspaper91裸聊视频檚 lead editorial was quoted to him by B.C. Liberal critics in question period.

Horgan continued the argument of B.C. Environment Minister George Heyman, who told reporters earlier that a court challenge of the project is appropriate and any action by Alberta to penalize B.C. would be 91裸聊视频渦nlawful.91裸聊视频 The court reference was made after Alberta cut off shipments of B.C. wine to retaliate against Heyman91裸聊视频檚 proposal for new regulations to restrict diluted bitumen transport across the province.

Reaction has been fast and furious since Kinder Morgan announced on Sunday it has suspended non-essential spending on the project, twinning its 65-year-old crude oil and fuel pipeline from Alberta to southwestern B.C.

B.C. Liberal leader Andrew Wilkinson said the federal government91裸聊视频檚 criticism of Horgan91裸聊视频檚 government on a pipeline that has federal and provincial approval is the kind usually reserved for Quebec separatists.

The Business Council of B.C. is calling for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to meet with B.C. Premier John Horgan to resolve the standoff over the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project.

91裸聊视频淭his is no longer about a pipeline project or whether one supports or opposes the legal movement of energy in Canada, which all Canadians and our economy rely on,91裸聊视频 said Greg D91裸聊视频橝vignon, president of the business council.

91裸聊视频淧rovoked by the B.C. government91裸聊视频檚 continued position, this is a referendum on whether British Columbia is open to investment and whether a legal enterprise can, with any confidence, build and operate a business within the province and the country.91裸聊视频
