For more than 50 years, crude oil tankers have been kept off BC’s North Coast. Premier David Eby came to Prince Rupert this week to say that isn’t changing.
For coastal First Nations, the announcement marks the culmination of decades of work to keep one of the richest marine regions on Earth free from oil tanker traffic. While BC has agreed not to oppose a new southern oil pipeline, the North Coast tanker ban remains in place.
The Great Bear Sea is no place for an oil spill.
