Canada may be able to climb down from its perch of being the worst among the G20 for international support for fossil fuels after signing on to a key energy financing plan at COP26.

Over the past year, support for the expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline has dropped seven per cent, says the poll done by Vancouver-based polling firm Research Co.

While heavily impacted First Nations have been continuously opposing TMX on their never-surrendered lands, courts have been using “injunctions” as tools for stopping protests.

With the federal election behind us, there are three big fights either already underway or just on the horizon where change is possible in battling the climate crisis, writes 350's Cameron Fenton.

If it were not for the Liberal government's Trans Mountain purchase, Canada would now be in the grips of a serious national unity crisis, writes associate law professor Martin Olszynski.

Nearly two dozen environmental and Indigenous organizations have signed an open letter calling on Trans Mountain insurers to drop the pipeline, warning the CEOs of major insurance companies that pressure will continue to mount until they do.

Maybe the most fanciful part of CAPP’s platform is its belief that Canada should ramp up its LNG exports to Asia and actually get credit for the emissions reductions associated with the switch from coal to natural gas, writes columnist Max Fawcett.

Friday marked the end of a global week of action against insurers of Canada’s Trans Mountain pipeline and its expansion project.

Following pressure from Indigenous and climate activists, Trans Mountain insurer Argo Group is slashing ties with the Crown corporation.

The Canada Energy Regulator accepted Trans Mountain's allegations without demanding proof. But when it came to Tsleil-Waututh Nation's arguments, the regulator said it was unconvinced.

The expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline will stretch hundreds miles and is fiercely opposed by numerous groups — but despite repeated calls, the Canadian government has not forced the pipeline to reveal its insurers.

Tsleil-Waututh Nation calls it a "dangerous precedent" that limits its ability to assert its inherent and constitutionally protected rights.

One of B.C.’s smallest birds is responsible for a four-month stop-work order on one of the federal government’s largest projects, the expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline.

One of the harshest sentences for contempt in B.C. comes as the Crown adopts a policy to seek non-custodial sentences for Indigenous defendants and as COVID spreads through local jails, writes activist Kris Hermes.

Federal government-owned Trans Mountain is asking the Canada Energy Regulator to keep secret the identities of the companies that provide insurance coverage for its pipeline system because of fears environmental activists will target them.
