“TransCanada’s statement shows that the company has still not secured the customers it needs for its Keystone XL pipeline,” said Patrick McCully, Climate and Energy Program Director at Rainforest Action Network. “It’s just bluster from Transcanada to pretend that this unnecessary and unwanted pipeline is close to proceeding. In addition to its financial problems, it still faces enormous regulatory and legal hurdles and continued fierce opposition from landowners, farmers, Indigenous Peoples, and activists alike.”
