Can Canada build a new oil pipeline? That’s ‘overfocusing’ on a ‘hypothetical,’ energy minister says

OTTAWA — Federal Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson says the question of whether there is a business case for a new bitumen pipeline in Canada will be up to the private sector to decide.

He also suggests the question of whether the country can, in fact, build a new oil pipeline to be an “overfocusing” on a “hypothetical.”

“I think Canada can build many things,” Hodgson told National Post in a wide-ranging interview on Monday.

Carney don’t want no pipeline.
