Prime Minister Carney: stop the American pipeline takeover
A trillion-dollar company with close ties to Donald Trump is buying up Canadian rental housing, telecoms and now, energy infrastructure.
Blackstone Inc. is the biggest investor behind Texas-based Western LNG, which is pushing to build a massive gas pipeline across British Columbia.
Blackstone’s CEO Steve Schwarzman is the richest private equity billionaire in the world, and one of Donald Trump’s top 10 donors. He’s been an advisor to the President since 2016.
Schwarzman wants an American construction company (Bechtel) to build an American-owned pipeline (PRGT) to an American-owned gas terminal built in Korea and installed in B.C.
If Blackstone isn’t stopped, Trump’s Wall Street allies will control the only two large export pipelines connecting Canada to markets other than the United States.
Prime Minister Carney must use the Investment Canada Act to review and block this attempted takeover of our energy infrastructure by MAGA billionaires. Sign our petition!
