Trudeau government asks NEB to reconsider Trans Mountain
The Trudeau government is asking the National Energy Board to reconsider its recommendations for the Trans Mountain oil pipeline expansion project that was struck down by the courts this summer.
The NEB will now have 22 weeks to "complete a thorough and prompt review" of the decision and deliver its new report, Natural Resources Minister Amarjeet Sohi said Friday in Halifax. That timeframe would place the new deadline on Fri. Feb. 22, 2019.
