World dzԹ,
Hillary Clinton says she will not take a position on the Keystone XL pipeline until she becomes President, citing her work on the issue as US secretary of state.
Clinton told voters in New Hampshire yesterday that she will not dzԹsecond-guessdzԹ President ObamadzԹs pending decision on the pipeline. She said that would not be the dzԹright thing to dodzԹ because the governmentdzԹs review of the project started during her tenure at the State Department.
Responding to a demand for a dzԹyesdzԹ or dzԹnodzԹ to the pipeline, Clinton said: dzԹIf itdzԹs undecided when I become president, I will answer your question.dzԹ
Two of Mrs. ClintondzԹs Democratic opponents, former Gov. Martin OdzԹMalley of Maryland and Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, have both said they oppose the Keystone project.

Senator John Hoeven, a North Dakota Republican and leading congressional supporter of the US$8 billion proposal, cited unidentified dzԹsourcesdzԹ yesterday in predicting President Barack Obama will reject the pipeline proposal in August.
dzԹThe earliest wedzԹll now see it, we think, is in 2018dzԹ under the next US President, said Patrick Kenny, an analyst at National Bank Financial in Calgary.
