Edelman, TransCanada to end Energy East Pipeline account
By Adnews Staff
Edelman of Toronto will cease work on the account of the TransCanada Energy East Pipeline project at the end of the year. According to the agency, the two companies have mutually agreed not to extend Edelman's contract in the best interests of the project. According to the agency, attention has moved away from the merits of the project over the last week.
A statement released by the two companies states: "Unfortunately, the conversation about our efforts has become so loud in certain areas that it is impossible to have an open and honest conversation about the pipeline project. The project is too important and a thoughtful, deliberative conversation is needed more than ever. For that reason we feel that selection of a new partner for the project is necessary at this time so a new conversation on the merits of the project can begin."
TransCanada's proposed Energy East Pipeline would transport approximately 1.1 million barrels of oil per day from Alberta to New Brunswick. If constructed, it would be the largest oil pipeline in North America.
