Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The private project sponsor confirmed the pipeline was terminated and that construction had already stopped after the permit was revoked, which is direct evidence against a restart claim.

South Bow announced that its open season closed March 30, 2026, securing 20-year binding commitments for firm transportation service from Hardisty, Alberta, to U.S. delivery points.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): After the prior assessment, the project sponsor reported commercial commitments for a Hardisty-to-U.S. service tied to South Bow's Keystone/Prairie Connector activity. This supports partial movement toward a related project, but not completed restart of the original Keystone XL pipeline.

Assessments

The promised outcome, restarting the Keystone XL pipeline, has not been fully delivered. TC Energy terminated Keystone XL in 2021 after the permit revocation, and the later 2026 evidence shows only tentative federal discussion of revival plus South Bow commercial commitments for related Hardisty-to-U.S. transportation service. That is movement toward a related cross-border pipeline outcome, but not a completed restart of the original Keystone XL project and not clearly attributable to Russell Fry's own federal action. Partial credit is more appropriate than full delivery; there is no evidence of a serious Fry-led legislative or executive attempt that failed, so no effort badge.

The original Keystone XL project was not restarted during Fry's federal tenure; it had been terminated by TC Energy in 2021 after the presidential permit was revoked. Later federal action under President Trump in 2026 reportedly authorized a related project partially reviving parts of the Keystone XL route, but that is not the same as the completed restart of the canceled pipeline and the supplied record does not show Fry wrote, sponsored, or materially advanced the outcome. Because there was some later federal movement toward a partial revival while Fry remained in office, but not clear full delivery or candidate-specific credit, partial credit is appropriate.
