Smith has said energy infrastructure such as pipelines are critical to her province’s long-term fiscal sustainability along with being vital to Canada’s interests.

Alberta had hoped to be on the first list of fast-tracked national projects recently announced by Prime Minister Mark Carney.

Smith has said she expects a pipeline will be on the next list of projects.
