Ottawa (Reuters) – Canada invoked a 1977 pipeline treaty on Monday with the United States for the second time to trigger negotiations to settle a long running dispute over Enbridge (NYSE:ENB) Inc’s Line 5 pipeline, Foreign Minister Melanie Joly said.
“In the forthcoming negotiations with the United States under the treaty, Canada is committed to working constructively to find a solution that responds to the interests of communities, respects Canada’s rights under the treaty and ensures the continued and safe supply of energy to central Canada,” Joly said in a statement.
