The writer must not have been listening to Trudeau who from the beginning of his run for the Liberal leadership through the election campaign, he has been clear that he supported getting Alberta oil to the export market.

In an interview with Metro Calgary in 2014, Trudeau said that while he doesn't agree with the Enbridge Northern Gateway proposal, he would be interested in the controversial proposal to twin the 60-year-old Trans Mountain pipeline.  

“So, my intent is to make sure we send Enbridge back to the drawing board for that. I am, however, very interested in the Kinder Morgan pipeline, the Trans Mountain pipeline that is making its way through," he said.  

"I certainly hope that we’re going to be able to get that pipeline approved. And I hope that Kinder Morgan learns from Enbridge’s experience of short-cutting or going too light on community buy-in. "

Trudeau's comments and support for the TransCanada Keystone XL pipeline have been a matter of public record for years.
