B.C. First Nations plan large demonstration to stop Kinder Morgan pipeline


First Nations groups are hoping to throw another wrench in Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain pipeline by amassing Indigenous people and their supporters on Burnaby Mountain to further delay the project. Members of the Tsleil-Waututh First Nation are calling for a mass demonstration on Burnaby Mountain in March. "I'll do whatever it takes to keep this beautiful British Columbia," said Cedar George, a member of the Tsleil-Waututh First Nation. His community directly faces Burnaby, one of the cities that Trans Mountain's pipeline expansion will go through. The federal government approved the 1,147-kilometre pipeline project in November 2016.
