Loaded dice and slick assessments: The Enbridge Northern Gateway Project

Join Raincoast for a public presentation on Enbridge’s marine Environmental Risk Assessment.

This document provides Enbridge’s rationale for their dismissal of concerns along the proposed tanker route on the BC coast. It uses highly misleading and selective information as the basis for dismissing the risks.

Captain Brian Falconer will provide the perspective of a professional mariner with over 30 years of experience on the BC coast.

Venue: Hemp & Company stores in Victoria and Sidney.

February 29   6:00 PM, Hemp & Co.  Victoria, 1102 Government Street

March 1           7:00 PM,  Hemp & Co.  Sidney, 2348 Beacon Avenue

Additional presentations on Saltspring, Pender and Gabriola Islands to be announced.

Raincoast’s in-house scientists, collaborating graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and professors make us unique among conservation groups. We work with First Nations, academic institutions, government, and other NGOs to build support and inform decisions that protect aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and the wildlife that depend on them. We conduct ethically applied, process-oriented, and hypothesis-driven research that has immediate and relevant utility for conservation deliberations and the collective body of scientific knowledge.

We investigate to understand coastal species and processes. We inform by bringing science to decision-makers and communities. We inspire action to protect wildlife and wildlife habitats.
