I wonder what happened with this project. Funding awared right when COVID hit.
Province Supports Indigenous Participation In Pipeline Projects
This funding will help to achieve Saskatchewan’s Growth Plan goals to increase the value of Saskatchewan’s exports by 50 per cent by 2030, expand export infrastructure and to grow Indigenous participation in Saskatchewan’s natural resource industries.
The Peacemaker Project, led by the First Peoples Pipeline, will receive a total of $500,000 to further work on a proposed project to create a new energy corridor for western Canadian oil and gas to an export terminal near Churchill, Manitoba. Funding of $250,000 was provided in March 2020, with the additional $250,000 to be provided this Fall. The project will provide the opportunity for Indigenous communities to engage in profit sharing using an ownership structure throughout the life of the project, while western Canadian oil and gas producers would have world market access through the new energy corridor and a northern tidewater port.
“This pipeline presents a significant economic opportunity for Indigenous communities to become more involved in our western Canadian energy sector and to increase market access for Saskatchewan products,” First Peoples Pipeline Director Blaine Favel said. “First Peoples Pipeline appreciates this support from the Government of Saskatchewan, which will help us continue to work to develop this project.”
