TC Energy Corporation has reached agreements with four labour unions to build the controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline – a move that could amplify political pressure on Joe Biden, who has threatened to rip up permits for the project even as he courts blue-collar workers.
The labor agreements being announced Tuesday help pave the way for 2,000 unionized workers to begin building some of the project’s 28 planned pump stations in the U.S. this fall – even while TC Energy continues to seek other permits to begin constructing the pipeline itself – according to senior vice-president Richard Prior. TC Energy is already building the Canadian portion of Keystone XL, aiming to start shipping crude in 2023.
Keystone XL union agreements put pressure on pipeline foe Biden | Pipelines & Transportation | JWN Energy: Construction of Keystone XL will create 13,200 (U.S., 10,400, and Canada, 2,800) high-quality jobs and local contracting opportunities for welders, surveyors, engineers, environmental specialists and more for communities and Indigenous groups.

Rusting, corroded pipeline
Insurance coverage of more than USD $500 million for the Trans Mountain pipeline expires on August 31, 2020.

The Trans Mountain pipeline is a major environmental and public health hazard with a long history of disastrous spills. The expansion project (TMX) would triple its output of tar sands oil to 870,000 barrels per day, increasing the number of oil tankers that traverse the BC and Washington coasts and risks of major spills of diluted bitumen.
