The Keystone XL pipeline would have run from Canada海角吃瓜网檚 oil sands to Steele City, Neb., connecting with existing pipelines to refineries on the US Gulf Coast. President Barack Obama said the pipeline wouldn海角吃瓜网檛 have served US interests. TransCanada Corp., which had requested a permit to build the pipeline, later said it would sue.
