First Nations leaders from British Columbia warn pipeline executives of impending legal battles if they push for a new bitumen line to the northwest coast. Drawing from their successful opposition to Enbridges Northern Gateway project, they emphasize risks to ocean health and food security from crude tankers. Pembina Pipeline and Trans Mountain executives engage in respectful talks, while Albertas government plans to propose a new pipeline proposal, potentially ending in Prince Rupert or a southern Vancouver route. First Nations leaders remain firm, stating no amount of compensation can justify threatening their pristine beaches and fisheries.
