Canada claimed its fifth gold medal in seven women's Olympic hockey tournaments by defeating the United States, 3-2 in the final.

Marie-Philip Poulin scored twice and assisted on Sarah Nurse's goal to add another chapter to her legacy as ``Captain Clutch'' for Canada.

Ann-Renee Desbiens made 38 saves as the Canadians forced the Americans to settle for a silver medal for the fourth time.

Captain Marie-Philip Poulin of Beauceville, Que., scored twice and assisted on the other to lead Canada to the gold medal with a 3-2 victory over the United States, ` the third time she has scored the ``golden-goal'' to clinch the championship.

Sarah Nurse, Hamilton, had the other goal and set a record for points scored during an Olympic tournament with 18 (5 g, 13 a) breaking the mark set by fellow Canadian Hayley Wickenheiser at Turin in 2006.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says her government is working to entice a private-sector player to build a crude pipeline to coastal waters. She urged attendees at the Global Energy Show to keep up the pressure on Ottawa to help speed along such a nation-building project.

But she says that's never going to happen as long as there's a tanker ban in place on the West Coast. Smith is also keen on accessing global markets via a pipeline to the Port of Churchill i
