A representative from TransCanada Pipeline seems to be staying positive about the future of the Keystone XL Pipeline despite a recent rejection of their application by US President Barack Obama.

" We've had very favourable comments from people in South Saskatchewan. We've had nothing but support from folks down her,  and it's been very positive for the most part." shares Darren Paquin with Keystone stakeholder relations.

Paquin was in the area for public meetings on proposed SaskPower transmission lines that would power the pumping stations for the proposed pipeline.

He says relations with SaskPower have been very productive.

Paquin wouldn't comment on when TransCanada might re-aply for their oil pipeline from Alberta to through southwest saskatchewan to the US.
