Taxpayers Federation wraps up pro-pipeline tour in Red Deer
A lack of pipelines is costing Canadians around $3 million every day, or $6 billion since 2013, according to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.
The CTF held a rally on Saturday at City Hall Park — the last stop on its nationwide tour — in a bid to show citizens why they should care about pipelines being built.
Franco Terrazzano, CTF Alberta Director, believes Canadians should be fed up that they aren’t getting full value for their oil.
“We are not talking about just one pipeline here. What we’re saying is to the federal government that we need a workable regulatory system in Canada so that we can get pipelines built,” he said.
