Northern Gateway Pipeline: Oil Bullet to China
Enbridge has been promoting its Northern Gateway Pipeline project (NGP) since 2002. Designed to move tar sands bitumen to the west coast, the company has never been clear about where the oil will go after that. Apart from glib assurances that it won’t wash up on BC’s coast, that is. Originally, the company said “California and the Far East.” Today, it’s “new export markets” and less certainty about California.
