Forward-Looking Information
Forward-looking information, or forward-looking statements,
have been included in this news release to provide information
about Enbridge Inc. ("Enbridge" or the "Company") and its
subsidiaries and affiliates, including management's assessment of
Enbridge and its subsidiaries' future plans and operations. This
information may not be appropriate for other purposes.
Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such
as ''anticipate'', ''expect'', ''project'', ''estimate'',
''forecast'', ''plan'', ''intend'', ''target'', ''believe'',
"likely", "will" and similar words suggesting future outcomes or
statements regarding an outlook. Forward-looking information or
statements in this news release include statements with respect to
the expected use of the net proceeds from the Offering.
Although Enbridge believes these forward-looking statements
are reasonable based on the information available on the date such
statements are made and processes used to prepare the information,
such statements are not guarantees of future performance and
readers are cautioned against placing undue reliance on
forward-looking statements. By their nature, these statements
involve a variety of assumptions, known and unknown risks and
uncertainties and other factors, which may cause actual results,
levels of activity and achievements to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by such statements. Assumptions regarding the
expected supply of and demand for crude oil, natural gas, NGL and
renewable energy, and the prices of these commodities, are material
to and underlie all forward-looking statements, as they may impact
current and future levels of demand for the Company's services.
Similarly, energy transition, including the drivers and pace
thereof, the COVID-19 pandemic, exchange rates, inflation and
interest rates impact the economies and business environments in
which the Company operates and may impact levels of demand for the
Company's services and cost of inputs, and are therefore inherent
in all forward-looking statements. Due to the interdependencies and
correlation of these macroeconomic factors, the impact of any one
assumption on a forward-looking statement cannot be determined with
certainty.
Enbridge's forward-looking statements are subject to risks
and uncertainties, including, but not limited to those risks and
uncertainties discussed in this news release and in the Company's
other filings with Canadian and United
States securities regulators. The impact of any one risk,
uncertainty or factor on a particular forward-looking statement is
not determinable with certainty as these are interdependent and
Enbridge's future course of action depends on management's
assessment of all information available at the relevant time.
Except to the extent required by applicable law, Enbridge assumes
no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking
statements made in this news release or otherwise, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise. All
subsequent forward-looking statements, whether written or oral,
attributable to Enbridge or persons acting on the Company's behalf,
are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary
statements.
This news release does not constitute or form part of, and
should not be construed as, an offer to purchase or an invitation
to sell securities of Enbridge, or the solicitation of an offer to
purchase securities of Enbridge, and nothing contained herein shall
form the basis of or be relied on in connection with any contract
or commitment.
