State of play: A look at the status of pipeline projects in Canada
VANCOUVER — The Federal Court of Appeal has overturned Ottawa’s approval of the Northern Gateway project, concluding that Canada fell short in its duty to consult with aboriginals.
Here’s an update on the status of major pipeline proposals in Canada:
Northern Gateway:
Enbridge’s $7.9-billion Northern Gateway project would bring 525,000 barrels a day of oilsands crude through a 1,177-kilometre pipeline from northeast of Edmonton to Kitimat, B.C., for shipping to international markets. A parallel line would send 193,000 barrels a day of bitumen-thinning diluent in the opposite direction.
