Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Wednesday said his administration was “disappointed” with President Joe Biden’s decision to revoke the permit for construction on the Keystone XL oil pipeline.
The 1,700-mile pipeline was planned to carry roughly 800,000 barrels of oil a day from Alberta to the Texas Gulf Coast, passing through Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, and Oklahoma.
“While we welcome the President’s commitment to fight climate change, we are disappointed but acknowledge the President’s decision to fulfill his election campaign promise on Keystone XL,” read Trudeau’s statement, released just hours after Biden was officially sworn-in as the U.S.’ 46th president.
The move was part of the Biden administration’s broader goal to crack down on fossil fuels. The new president is expected to direct sweeping environmental regulatory changes over the next four years and reverse some Trump-era deregulatory policies in an effort to tackle climate change.
The controversial Keystone XL pipeline initially proposed more than a decade ago, would sustain about 11,000 U.S. jobs in 2021 and generate $1.6 billion in gross wages.

Justin says “climate change for thee, but not for me.”
So sue to stop him.
Music to my ears!!! Two globalist fighting...yes! ..good!😁
China has directed Joe to cancel the pipeline so that they are the only viable customer and can buy the oil from Canada on the cheap.
I’m glad I’m cash heavy. This dude is going to tank the economy faster than I thought.
They will just sell crude to China of course.
Disappointed?
Gosh, don’t go too over the top.
Wimp!
LOLOL....ha, ha, ha.
They are / have been rising... All over the US.
Boy, Slow Joe’s already pissing everyone off literally left and right, isn’t he? Canada, Israel, domestic oil workers.....
I have noticed them going up in the last couple weeks.
They are going to skyrocket now.
I doubt Jobama even realizes what he’s signing.
Valerie hands the documents to Susan who places them on Joe’s desk. If he signs his full name it’s considered a win.
In a few days they’ll be using 44’s autopen.
In November we had gas at about $1.78/gallon. Filled up today, $2.30/gallon. That’s 50 cents a gallon increase since the November 3rd election steal.
Bend over, here it comes!
Trudeau, you worthless piece of leftist shit, you got exactly what the left said it would do. I suggest you go play with one of your boy friends.
Get used to a lot of disappointments boyo!
Ah...what a surprise.
And you get more greenhouse gases from railroads vs. pipelines.
Canadian perspective on this — Justin Trudeau has taken a rather weak public stand in favor of two pipelines (Keystone and another one from Alberta to coastal BC) that the left in Canada vigorously oppose. His game here is to hold on to the small amount of support his party has in (a) western Canada and (b) the Canadian business community.
Most of us suspect that Justin Trudeau is personally opposed to these pipelines like two-thirds of his party caucus in parliament are probably opposed, but they pose as supporters knowing that other forces will cancel the projects making it appear to a few chumps that they tried, what the heck? but couldn’t quite see them through. How that’s supposed to get them any votes, I don’t know.
But nobody in the Trudeau cabinet or circle of advisors would have been even slightly surprised by Biden’s first day announcement. In fact, they were probably tipped off weeks ago.
The public statements are what you might call kabouki theater. We live in an age of lies and deceptions. There are very few honest or truth-seeking people active in politics today, it’s the same class of people as we see in the MSM.
Now that Trump’s inactive (for however long) I guess the baton falls to Cruz and Hawley and Jordan, and a few others. May God strengthen their resolve and keep them from harm. We have even fewer active in Canada. There isn’t even one person I could name of even the middle-ranking stature of Ted Cruz who I would trust in Canadian politics or media.
We are what you would become, if you don’t take stronger action than we were able to take. I have faith in you to do better than Canadians did. There must be millions of people with the right intentions in your country, in Canada, it is closer to hundreds, maybe dozens. I think I know about half of them personally.
