Does that mean it will be like a crown owned pipeline? Not that privatizing ports is worth a provincial pipeline but that would be an interesting outcome.

    Potentially, depending on how they choose to finance it. The Trans Mountain pipeline is fully government owned through a crown corp, they could do something similar. Or they could go with a P3 model where they use government funds to make investment more attractive to a private corporation resulting in a privately owned pipeline or shared ownership depending on the specifics of the agreement.
