Keystone XL Pipeline

Keystone XL was a proposed 1,947 km long pipeline project that would have carried crude oil from Alberta to Nebraska. It was owned by Calgary-based TC Energy Corporation. The pipeline was named XL for “export limited.” First proposed in July 2008, it was the prospective fourth phase of TC Energy’s existing Keystone Pipeline system. In Canada, Keystone XL had the support of both the federal and Alberta governments. However, the project faced significant opposition and legal challenges on environmental grounds. In January 2021, United States president Joe Biden cancelled its permit on his first day in office. On 9 June 2021, TC Energy and the Alberta government announced the termination of the Keystone XL pipeline.

Laurentian Thesis

The Laurentian thesis is an influential theory of Canadian history. It was developed by several historians in the early and middle decades of the 20th century. It posits that Canada’s development was a result of the economic exploitation of staple resources (e.g., fur, timber, wheat, etc.) by a merchant class living in the major centres along the St. Lawrence River and the Great Lakes. This system enabled the creation of both a transatlantic and a transcontinental market economy. The Laurentian thesis was a major influence on historians after the Second World War.

Law of Fiduciary Obligation

In Canadian law, fiduciary obligation refers to a relationship in which one party (the fiduciary) is responsible for looking after the best interests of another party (the beneficiary). The courts have determined that a fiduciary obligation exists where the fiduciary can exercise some discretion or power, and they do so in a way that affects the interests of the beneficiary. In these relationships, the beneficiary is in a position of vulnerability at the hands of the fiduciary.
