New BC Mayors, Pipeline Critics

vote for democracy next electionLee Brain, who many remember as the oil executive’s son who delivered a powerful testimony against Enbridge at the Northern Gateway hearings two years ago, just became mayor of Prince Rupert. 

It’s not good news for Enbridge, which was — until recently — considering moving its terminal for the Northern Gateway pipeline from Kitimat to Prince Rupert, after Kitimat residents and city council came out against the project.

Brain told the Vancouver Observer he remains categorically opposed to the Enbridge Northern Gateway project.
