Canada's finance minister the Hon. Bill Morneau requested an opportunity to speak to the Calgary Chamber about the looming Kinder Morgan deadline of May 31, 2018 regarding their possible cancellation of the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion. The Chamber put together an event within a few short days, but by the time the minister arrived, the proverbial cat was out of the bag. The event sold out twice and had to be moved to a larger location. Calgary business people were likely expecting to hear some details of how the Canadian government's acquisition of the Kinder Morgan project would be developed. This is a very tight-knit, numbers conscious business community of experts in the energy business. The minister disappointed by repeating things we already knew and telling Calgarians, who have been battered by waves of bad economic news for the past few years, that 'hard things are hard.' Michelle Stirling, Communications Manager for Friends of Science files this report.
