The Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion from Edmonton to Vancouver is a $7 billion plus project that would see the current pipeline twinned with a new one to more than double the capacity to get the oil sands or bitumen to markets other than the US. That would mean a sevenfold increase in tanker traffic out of Berard Inlet, which environmentalists worry about the impact on the aquaculture. Of course, visions of the Exxon Valdez dance in their heads.
