Enbridge: Canadian Government

Enbridge Inc Dept: Heritage Minister James Moore s comments - the first attack by any top Canadian government official on Enbridge - also reveal that a rare split has opened up inside the cabinet over the proposed C$6 billion $6 billion Northern Gateway project, which the Conservative government backs strongly, according to Vancouver Sun. The 1,177 km 731 mile Northern Gateway would take 525,000 barrels a day of crude from the Alberta tar sands across the Rocky Mountains to Kitimat on the British Columbia coast for export to China and other energy-hungry Asian nations and oTTAWA - A top Canadian cabinet minister has blasted Enbridge Inc s environmental record, casting more doubt on whether the company will be able to build a controversial pipeline from Alberta s oil sands to the Pacific Coast. Moore is the senior political minister for British Columbia, the province where the pipeline would end. His remarks come at a bad time for Enbridge, which is under heavy pressure in the United States over leaks from its existing network there. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
