What is the Keystone? First, there was Keystone XL, now it's Michigan. Xidan stopped Keystone the first day in office. It all centers on this. It's to stop all work around the Great Lakes because that is from where the Chinese operation is coming, with the combined forces of the Jihadists and the southern invaders Xidan is planning to fly there. Also, MAY is key. That's the Gretch's DEADLINE for stopping the pipeline through MICHIGAN.
Line 5 'very different' from Keystone XL and Canada will fight hard for it: O'Regan
'The operation of Line 5 is non-negotiable,' said natural resources minister

The federal government won't let Michigan shut down the Line 5 pipeline, Canada's natural resources minister said Thursday as he dismissed opposition comparisons to the thwartedKeystone XL project.
Seamus O'Regan sounded almost combative as he vowed to defend the 1,000-kilometre line,which bridges an environmentally sensitive part of the Great Lakesto link Wisconsin with refineries in Sarnia, Ont.
"We are fighting on a diplomatic front, and we are preparing to invoke whatever measures we need to in order to make sure that Line 5 remains operational," he said. "The operation of Line 5 is non-negotiable."
In November, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer ordered Line 5 to be shut down by May, accusing Calgary-based Enbridge of violating the terms of the deal that allows the lineto traverse the bottom of the Straits of Mackinac.
The straits, which link Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, boast powerful, rapidly changing currents that experts have said make the area the worst possible place for an oil spill in the Great Lakes.
Pipeline opponents in the U.S. โmany of the same voices who helped make TC Energy's proposed Keystone XL expansion an environmental rallying point over the last decade โ have vowed to see it shut down.
Enbridge, which has plans to fortify the underwater segment of the line by routing it through a tunnel under the lake bed, is fighting Whitmer's order in court.
Kirsten Hillman, Canada's ambassador to the U.S., said Michigan's concerns over Line 5 predate Whitmer and have been a topic of frequent discussion for embassy officialssince 2017.
O'Regan also took pains to insist he remains "confident" that Enbridge and Michigan will reach an agreement to allow the line to continue to operatebefore Whitmer's drop-dead date in May.
Conservative MP Mark Strahl noted that the federal government had failed to prevent U.S. President Joe Biden from cancelling Keystone XL, and pressed O'Regan on how the plan for Line 5 is different.
"It sounds an awful lot like the plan to advocate for Line 5 is a carbon copy of the plan to advocate for Keystone XL," Strahl said. "Why are you expecting a different result?"
"These are very different," O'Regan said as he defended the federal Liberal efforts onKeystone XL, which Biden cancelled on his first day in the White House.
