Ep. 009: Why Twin The Trans Mountain Pipeline?

Mining and oilVancouver and British Columbia
Written By Stuart McNish

Guest: Michael Davies, Kinder Morgan

Kinder Morgan's expanded pipeline project is drawing huge protests on Burnaby Mountain.

Michael Davies of Kinder Morgan says more that 300,000 barrels of oil flow into Burnaby and Washington State through the company pipeline. Everyday the demand for oil far exceeds supply and projections indicate the demand will continue to grow. Davies details the history of the company and its safety record both over the pipeline route and in BC's coastal waters.

We invited Natasha Questel to join us for a Conversation That Matters about the mission of One Girl Can.
