What happened
Mark Carney's office designated Pacific Link, a new crude oil export pipeline, as a project of national interest in British Columbia. The pipeline is planned to carry 1 million barrels per day and has a total investment value of US$950 million. The project will utilize a port terminal in British Columbia to serve as its endpoint.
