Justin Trudeau Praises Alberta Premier Alison Redford On Keystone

Federal Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau has praised Alberta Premier Alison Redford for her efforts to get the United States to approve the Keystone XL pipeline.

But Trudeau said Prime Minister Stephen Harper's government hasn't done enough to push the project.

"This (federal) government hasn't done a very good job of reassuring either Canadians or our trading partners that we are serious about managing environmental sustainability," Trudeau told reporters after shaking hands with commuters at a downtown subway station early Friday.

"This is the kind of thing we need strong leadership on, and I'm pleased to see Premier Redford taking such a strong and balanced position on that."

but any tar sands pipeline is a deal breaker. If he's going around saying Harper is too soft on pipelines then he really can piss up a rope.
