ANALYSIS: Winnipeg Jets have been ‘Breaking Good’ post-Olympics

They’ve amassed 10 wins and produced points in another four of those 18 games to close the distance on a wild-card berth that, if they fell short of securing now, would only add to the frustration of what’s been a curious season.

That’s because one of the key promises in the Smith-Carney deal is to build the Pathways carbon capture network, which proposes to gather CO2 from up to 13 oilsands sites in northern Alberta and store the resulting emissions underground. As Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and Prime Minister Mark Carney look to finalize their proposed energy “grand bargain,” a $20-billion albatross hangs around their necks. If completed, oilsands firms would collect up to 12 million tonnes a year of CO2 from various well sites in the Fort McMurray, Alta., region, according to Pathway’s project description.
