Oil and Salmon Don't Mix

Four
major pipeline projects have been proposed for northern British
Columbia over
the next five years, including the Enbridge Northern Gateway Project.
The Enbridge pipelines would transport petroleum from the Alberta oil
sands to tankers on the British Columbia coast and petroleum condensate
east from British Columbia to Alberta. The
pipelines would cross and at times run parallel to important salmon
habitats in
the Upper Fraser, Skeena and Kitimat watersheds. This fact sheet
highlights the importance of salmon in northern British
Columbia and gives an overview of the risks posed to salmon by the
Enbridge oil
sands pipelines. For more information, see the full report, "Pipelines
and Salmon in Northern British Columbia: Potential Impacts."
