Election issues: Pipelines
KAMLOOPS — The $7.4 billion expansion of Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain Pipeline has been approved by the federal government, but it hasn’t earned a stamp of approval from the majority of the Kamloops candidates.
“Our party does stand in opposition to Kinder Morgan and all the major new pipelines that are being proposed,” Peter Kerek, Kamloops-North Thompson candidate for the BC Communist Party, said.
“The BC NDP does not feel that Kinder Morgan is in the best interest of our province,” Kamloops-North Thompson NDP candidate Barb Nederpel said.
