Marlaina wants the Feds to stay out of it. No problem! BC will never agree to a pipeline, and the Feds will stay out of it, just like you wanted. Sorry, Marlaina, maybe try your grifting in the US.

I think she might know all this and playing her own charade for her base. She's "done what she had to do" to secure fed support for a pipeline and it won't happen because of "stupid BC." She also gets another boogeyman to point for the sadness in her base's hearts.

The Premier of Alberta, who's full name is Marlaina Danielle Smith. Now that you know, never forget to use it because she hates it! :)

This whole thing seems like its just a charade to deflect Albertans spite away from the Feds and instead towards BC, because everybody involved has to know that cutting BC out of any pipeline deal was a terrible way to get BC onboard a pipeline through BC. Even people who wouldn't normally care seem to be pissed off about this.

It also says "sure you can have a pipeline if you can find a private industry 'partner' to finance and build it", knowing full well that the economics aren't there for any private company to actually be able to make a business case to do it.
