Environment critic says NDP Trans Mountain fight moves goalposts on investors
KAMLOOPS — The BC Liberal environment critic says the NDP government is driving away investment with its vow to fight the Kinder Morgan Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.
Earlier today, Environment Minister George Heyman announced the government has hired a lawyer to advise it on the fight against the project.
Heyman says the province will also seek intervenor status in legal challenges to the project’s National Energy Board approval.
Environment Critic Peter Milobar says the government isn’t measuring the impact this will have on the province’s investment climate.
