Once a pipe dream there are primarily ideas being floated by Canada that Europe could potentially in the future, if the engineering and respect for indigenous people agree it might be feasible. Could you imagine if we could connect to Europe. France fusion experiment is going well. Winter is almost over and Russian revenues are anticipate to go down based on the cycle and the season. Europe stands strong in support of Ukraine.
The bottom line is after 3 years Ukraine is still here and stands strong. Justice will prevail.

  1. That pipeline to Canada is the necessary link to get the Europeans off German gas and unlike the US or Russia, Canada is less likely to use it as a means of co-ercion. It's also in the interest of the Canadians now to improve economic relations outside of the US since they have shown they are unreliable under their administration. Europe still buys LNG from Russia to this day. Once that link is established Europe can finally fix its strategic energy calamity and Russia will have a lower revenue to continue pursuing wars on Europe.

  2. There will be no transatlantic pipeline! It would be far easier to get the gas and oil from Ukraine and Europe would get it much faster too. I'm Canadian and the Atlantic Ocean is very wide and very deep. Maybe LNG and oil tankers from Canada to Europe but we lack the infrastructure, and it would be 3 years until it is ready. Maybe the plan is to starve Russia for a decade or more though, but such long-term plans are folly in light of new green technologies. A better investment might be heat pumps and EVs along with investments in wind, solar and batteries. Play the China card for cheap EVs and renewables technology and the only gas and oil required would be for industrial purposes and even that can be phased out. Electrically powered cars, trucks, buses and trains, the technology has arrived and is cheaper than fossil fuel power generation. Chinese EVs are cheap and so are Chinese solar panels and batteries. These things last for 25 years so it's not like oil that can be cut off overnight and in 25 years who knows what we will have. Perhaps armies of humanoid robots run by AI with human intellectual and physical labor devalued down to the cost of cheap renewables electricity.

  3. Agreed Mark. Trustworthiness is essential in business and in durable relationships, as are basic human values. That makes Canada and the Europeans natural partners and allies.

  4. You can't count all of the many small aid projects going on outside of Ukraine, but perhaps it is fair to include the housing and support for Ukrainian refugees across Europe as well in the humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

  5. Trump should be fine with Ukraine stretching things out. After all, his time-honoured legal defense strategy is bogging down legal proceedings with a non-stop flow of frivolous motions and appeals.

  6. I’m uncertain if this is a literal pipeline, but rather a network of lng and oil shipped. Land pipelines require pumping or compression stations every 100-150km.

  7. Here's what will happen.

    Putin is negotiating a new security architecture for Europe with Trump.

    This agreement includes withdrawing all American troops and American nuclear weapons from Europe.

    This will dissolve NATO.

    Putin has done his job and is resigning.

    The new Russian president will restore economic relations between Western Europe and Russia to normal.

  8. If there is one thing we need in eu desperately for our future, its affordable energy. Not just for our less rich people, so they can actually afford getting anywhere, or heating our houses. We also need cheap, non cyclical energy for our transition to further automation. We can't and should not relay on cheap labor, instead we need energy solutions. Russian gas was nice, especially for the industry in Germany, but not good enough for our future needs anyway. We need some Nuclear (fusion, hopefully) and better sustainable energy and infrastructure. The combination of wind and solar work pretty well for some countries, but its still not consistent, and we never build the infrastructure in time to accommodate these fluctuations.

    Canada is investing in LNG, which is something the EU has been moving towards for several years now in a major way.
    This is where canada will compete directly with the USA over this massive market thats still growing for the next few years.
    Its an essential part of EU's energy transition.

  9. Wow. That's a massive project.
    It'd be smarter to buy gas and oil from Russia. Russia was the perfect supplier. Europe got oil and gas at very good prices. And Russia was perfectly reliable.
    All this "blackmail" nonsense is just that.
    But what's done is done. Russia is successfully replacing Europe. Europe needs gas and oil supplied through pipes.
    European living standards are going to continue to decline for some time.
    So are Canada's.

    Hopefully this pipedream (a pun) will work. But most probably Europe will return to Russia as a customer. This was always the plan anyway it's just that Europe thought Russia would be defeated and Europe would be able to dictate terms to a loser. Unfortunately they stuffed it up which is not surprising if you watch, listen to and read from the muppets running the show and it will be Europe who approaches Russia as the loser. Womp-womp.

  10. Thank you from Denmark. I am just afraid that Zelenskyys open Pandora box in Exchange their wealth for security to a swindler. In 4 years there may not be an honest person in power but a similar.
