B.C. Grants Trans Mountain Pipeline Environmental Approval

The Canadian Press, 11 Jan, 2017 01:50 PM
    VICTORIA — British Columbia has granted environmental approval to the expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline.

    The federal government gave its approval for Kinder Morgan Canada's $6.8-billion expansion of the pipeline late last year after the National Energy Board recommended it go ahead if 157 conditions are met.
