The Financial Post reports in its Tuesday edition that a first nations group that is in favour of oil and gas development is pushing for a new pipeline similar to Northern Gateway, an ill-fated project opposed by many indigenous communities. A Postmedia dispatch to the Post reports that National Coalition of Chiefs chief executive officer Dale Swampy said an oil pipeline to the northern coast of British Columbia -- a project he called "Northern Gateway 2.0." -- would lift up indigenous groups and help them alleviate poverty. "A northwest tidewater bitumen pipeline is the answer to being able to increase our production or increase our economic activity," Mr. Swampy said. Enbridge's Northern Gateway would have shipped oil from Alberta to a terminal in Kitimat, B.C., but the Justin Trudeau government killed the pipeline. The project had faced strong opposition from environmental groups and many first nations, who worried a possible spill would have devastating impacts on their communities. Mr. Swampy said he supports Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's ambitions to have a pipeline ship Alberta oil to the Port of Prince Rupert, a different destination than what Enbridge had envisioned with Northern Gateway.
