Canada’s Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver said his nation wants to work with the U.S. to cut greenhouse-gas emissions, including from Alberta’s oil sands, the source of crude to be carried by the Keystone XL pipeline.

Canada is pursuing policies to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions from using oil sands to the same level as gasoline refined from traditional crude, he said today. He discussed technologies, not policies, that could reduce its greenhouse-gas footprint.
