TRUDEAU'S EXCUSE FOR ENERGY EAST CANCELLATION

   In a heated exchange between Scheer and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in question period Wednesday over the future of the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion, Scheer brought up the other energy project, which was cancelled last year.
  If the government really wants to develop Canada's energy sector and get resources to market "they will invite Energy East back to the table," said Scheer.
  While Trudeau initially deflected, he later said that in the case of Energy East, a private company determined it did not want to pursue the project because oil was at half the price it had been when the initiative was first proposed.
   A senior officer of TransCanada Pipelines when the Energy East project was conceived and developed commercially, writes: The Trudeau government should be stepping up to accept some real culpability for contributing to TransCanada’s decision to abandon the project, instead of resorting to various sophistries and distortions.
