Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and B.C. Premier David Eby have a fundamental disagreement about whether Canada needs another oil pipeline to the West Coast.

It’s a topic that has sparked angry exchanges between the two provinces in the past. But in this era of Team Canada co-operation, the two leaders are – at least for now – showing a concerted effort to maintain civility.
