Elizabeth May Reacts to Trans Mountain Decision
Green Party Leader Elizabeth May speaks with reporters in Ottawa about the federal cabinet's decision to approve the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project for a second time. Cabinet originally approved the expansion in 2016 but a federal court ruling overturned that decision in August 2018, citing inadequate environmental reviews and the need for further consultation with Indigenous communities. Meanwhile, in May 2018, with the future of the expansion in doubt, the federal government announced that it would purchase the project from Kinder Morgan Canada for $4.5 billion. (June 18, 2019)
