Calgary Herald: First Nations from B.C. and Alberta are expected to meet later this month in Vancouver to discuss the possibility of purchasing a stake in the Trans Mountain pipeline, Postmedia News has learned.
The meeting on July 25 at The Vancouver Convention Centre is to be hosted by the Fort McKay and Mikisew Cree First Nations, according to Fort McKay First Nation chief Jim Boucher.
The two Alberta First Nations publicly stated an interest in an ownership stake in the project following the announcement in May the federal government was purchasing the existing Trans Mountain pipeline and its expansion project for $4.5 billion.
