The Federal Court of Appeal will rule on August 30 on a case that combines nearly two dozen lawsuits that call for the National Energy Board's review of Kinder Morgan Canada Limited's project to be overturned. The Tsleil-Waututh and Squamish on B.C.'s South Coast have stated the federal government did not adequately consult them before the energy board review or the cabinet decision to approve the project. If the court rules in favor of the First Nations, then it would most likely kill the Trans Mountain expansion project that Canada has purchased.
