Coldwater band applies to Supreme Court of Canada over Trans Mountain expansion

A B.C. First Nation is applying to argue its case at the Supreme Court of Canada for the protection of its drinking water in relation to the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion. “This application is unlike any other proceeding concerning the Trans Mountain Pipeline Expansion Project,” states the Coldwater application, filed on Friday. “It is about ensuring that the sole source of drinking water within the Coldwater Indian Band’s reserve is protected.”
