The state of Michigan has told a Canadian energy company it must shut down a controversial oil and gas pipeline by Wednesday amid growing fears that a spill would be catastrophic to the region, in a feud which threatens to strain relations between Canada and the United States.

The company’s refusal to comply with the order, and swift support from top Canadian officials, highlights the politicized nature of pipelines, which campaigners have used as a target in the fight against climate change.

For nearly 67 years, Enbridge has moved oil and natural gas from western Canada through Michigan and the Great Lakes to refineries in the province of Ontario.

But Michigan says that one section to the pipeline – Line 5 – is too risky to continue operating.

Shutdown of US pipeline after cyber-attack prompts worry over gas prices

In November, the Michigan governor, Gretchen Whitmer, announced a plan to revoke the easement granted to Enbridge, which permits Line 5 to cross under the Straits of Mackinac. Whitmer set 12 May as the deadline for the Canadian energy giant to shut down the pipeline.


Great job Gretchen. I can not think of more perfect timing to shut down the third pipeline this year. It’s really as if they’re actively trying to destroy this country at this point. Hell Whitmer!

This will get tied up in the courts. There is no way to speculate how this goes without having the easement in front of me. The easement spells out the pipeline operator and the property owner's rights.

Whitmer is both stupid and arrogant. That's a really ugly combination.

I’m getting really tired of people assuming they are dumb.

They aren’t. Their goals are set in opposition to yours.

but, but there is not a consolidated effort from the President and liberal dems in charge to affect oil production in America.

and they wonder why some people question the whole "Russian hack" pipeline answer.

They are setting us up for governor takeover and nationalization of the entire oil and gas industry.

We are in our way to becoming Venezuela.

Even if she loses big time, she will still be “re elected”.

This cements the idea that this all is a manufactured "red flag" to distract from something the Democrats and Oligarchy either are doing or fear.

Their goals are evil - you can be very destructive if you are in power and consumed with evil - that doesn't take intelligence.

Whitmire is dumb. You'd have to search the DEMs in congress to find a dumber person.

Yeah, I’m not exactly sure if Whitmer is stupid. I know AOC, Cuomo, and Biden are idiots, but I’m not giving her that benefit of the doubt.

Andrew Cuomo is dumber and also more evil. New Mexico’s Governor is as well.
