EDMONTON – Jason Kenney needs to stop changing positions on supporting the Kinder Morgan pipeline.

On April 8^th Kenney told the media “I believe there is a need for the federal and provincial governments urgently to pursue with Kinder Morgan some form of financial partnership to diminish the risk to the shareholders.”^[1]

On May 14^th Kenney flipped his position to say that investing in Kinder Morgan is “the wrong way to go about it”.^[2]

Kenney then flipped back the same day saying that investing in Kinder Morgan should be a last resort.^[3]

While Jason Kenney continues to waffle on support for Kinder Morgan, the NDP Caucus remains focused and committed to doing everything necessary to get the Kinder Morgan Pipeline built.
