The Canadian government has invoked a little-known energy treaty over Calgary-based Enbridge's Line 5 pipeline in order to force the U.S. government to negotiate.

It's a 1977 treaty that Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly said "ensures the uninterrupted transmission of hydrocarbons — in the case of Line 5, light crude oil and natural gas liquids — from one place in Canada to another, transiting through the United States."

As Ina Sidhu reports, this is just the latest in the long-running saga over the pipeline.
