B.C. Premier David Eby and Prime Minister Mark Carney are set to make an announcement Thursday on what the premier’s office called “a new multi-billion-dollar agreement that will power decades of job growth and prosperity.”<\/p>\n

The announcement is scheduled for 10:15 a.m. PT.<\/p>\n

According to the prime minister’s public itinerary, the announcement will focus on “a new cooperative prosperity partnership to build a stronger, more sustainable economy.”<\/p>\n

The announcement comes the same day that the government of Alberta has said it will announce more details on its proposed “million-barrel-per-day” oil pipeline route<\/a> through British Columbia to the West Coast, following its July 1 deadline for submitting a proposal to the federal Major Projects Office.<\/p>\n

Eby has long indicated his opposition to such a proposal, instead saying Canada should focus on shovel-ready projects already underway in B.C., including new mines and liquefied natural gas projects.<\/p>\n

Eby has just returned from a trade trip to China<\/a>. He left on Saturday and had cut that trip short because of progress on the agreement with Ottawa.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Listen to this article Estimated 1 minute The audio version of this article is generated by AI-based technology.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":775829,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,41,39,42,40],"class_list":["post-775828","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/775828","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=775828"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/775828\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/775829"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=775828"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=775828"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=775828"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
