But Kenney, or any other Alberta Premier has less power to get pipelines built, especially for ones that need to cross provincial borders to go to a port and open up new markets.
He's really limited to words of encouragement, and throwing money around to show that Alberta has the companies' back and that they should stay in Alberta and not move their HQ to Houston or Dallas.
