OTTAWA — Alberta Premier Rachel Notley says her province and the federal government have agreed on a plan to eliminate investor risk surrounding the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project.

As a result, Notley says, the pipeline “will be built,” although she refused to provide details.

Notley’s remarks followed those of B.C. Premier John Horgan, who says the meeting with Notley and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau did nothing to end his ongoing efforts to block the project.

Horgan, Notley and Trudeau met today on Parliament Hill in hopes of finding a solution to the impasse between the two provinces, which is threatening to kill the expansion project.

Horgan says Trudeau laid out “legislative and financial measures” to push the project forward, but he did not elaborate.

Privy Council Clerk Michael Wernick, Finance Minister Bill Morneau and Natural Resources Minister Jim Carr also took part in the meeting.
