Mr. Carney, about That Pipeline Deal—We Need to Talk

You also just announced a major new pipeline deal meant to fast-track export capacity to British Columbia. The project hinges on coastal routes that run directly through Indigenous territories—and despite your assurances, no serious consultation took place before this deal was announced. Reconciliation rests on the principle that our approval is required, not optional. That’s what “consent” means. But the speed and scale of this deal suggest you view consent as optional.
