Premier David Eby said he would rather see Canada build more oil refineries than a new pipeline to British Columbia’s northwest coast.
His comments came after Alberta Premier Danielle said the recent U.S. actions in oil-rich Venezuela should spur Canada to speed up pipeline development.
A memorandum of understanding signed between Ottawa and Alberta in November stipulates any new pipeline would need to be privately-funded.
The Canada Energy Regulator says Canada’s 17 oil refineries had a capacity of about 1.93 million barrels per day, as of 2024.
