He also explained that the process will need to involve and have the consent of all these major players as it will stretch across provincial borders and territorial land.
He finished with a call to action for unity to get these projects done and move forward as a country.
He didn't bite on Bell's "guaranteed commitment" quip as it's just as simple minded a request as Bell and Smith are as people.

I personally don't think its a problem, Im just saying that if he wanted to win a couple of votes out of Alberta he could have done better. I thought my first post covered why it'll be used by the opposing groups as I described.
I also said it likely doesn't matter as he will have a majority well before vote counts begin in the west.
