"As reported
by Daily Wire, the Biden administration is reportedly gathering data on
a Michigan-based pipeline that delivers oil from western Canada across
Wisconsin, the Great Lakes, and Michigan, and into Ontario.
Citing a report from subscription-based Politico Pro, Daily Wire said the administration has not yet made a final decision about the pipeline, which comes after the Canadian government invoked an old international treaty to stop the state of Michigan from shutting down the pipeline. Via Politico Pro:
Revoking the permits for the [Line 5] pipeline that delivers oil from western Canada across Wisconsin, the Great Lakes and Michigan and into Ontario, would please environmentalists who have urged the White House to block fossil fuel infrastructure, but it would aggravate a rift with Canada and could exacerbate a spike in energy prices […].
Killing a pipeline while U.S. gasoline prices are the highest in years could be political poison for Biden, who has seen his approval rating crash in recent months."
We better hope he says no. But if he actually goes through with it, even the liberal apologists would be hard pressed to excuse away this destructive decision.
