8:30 – The fight over Enbridge’s Line 5 could have a big impact on Canada’s energy sector but, according to commentator Danielle Smith, many people in Eastern Canada who will be the most affected have no idea what the pipeline is. Smith says the pending closure of the pipeline should come as a reality check for Ottawa, as Canada has allowed politicians to “become dangerously disconnected from reality.” Smith joins Gormley to discuss the importance of Line 5 and why Eastern Canada still treats energy as a Western issue.
