Enbridge CEO  Patrick Daniel, writing on the Troy Media site says Northern Gateway Pipeline will benefit all Canadians

With the second largest proven
petroleum reserves in the world, Canada may like to flatter itself that
it is a global energy superpower, but it's not true.

It could be. One day it might be. But it is not an energy superpower yet...

The Enbridge Northern Gateway
pipeline project, which will run from Edmonton, Alberta, to Kitimat,
British Columbia, is one step on the road to Canada becoming an energy
superpower. With Northern Gateway we will be able to safely move energy
to the West Coast, open new markets for Canadian petroleum and create
thousands of construction and supplier jobs as well as significant
permanent employment right across Canada.
