Petition to the Government of Canada
- It would put at risk lands, surface waters and aquifers along the route and result in more than 400 oil tankers on the southern BC coast per year;
- It is not a case of whether an oil spill would occur, but when;
- Clean-up technologies are ineffective with bitumen and the financial risk to taxpayers from the costs of spills is real;
- The threat is not only to our ecosystems and communities, but also to industries such as agriculture, fisheries and tourism; and
- The export of diluted bitumen, whether by Kinder Morgan or Enbridge to the north, threatens the future of the planet through climate change.
