Episode Synopsis

Fortis BC is proposing a major $3 billion expansion to its LNG storage facility on the Fraser River. Local residents are concerned 300-metre LNG tankers negotiating the river will pose a serious threat to public safety in Delta. We speak with Eoin Finn of the Friends of Tilbury Coalition about why they think this expansion poses a threat to public safety in Delta. If you would like to comment on the proposal, you have until July 16. Go to https://lngtankersafety.org/ to find out how to submit your comments.
