MEDIA INDIGENA 131
Added 2018-09-08 20:24:43 +0000 UTCON THIS WEEK'S (ALL-NEW) ROUNDTABLE:
Is a controversial pipeline now a pipe-dream? Canada’s Federal Court of Appeal has just ruled that plans to expand the Trans Mountain pipeline are to be put on hold until the government gets its act together on the potential impacts of greater oil tanker traffic on marine ecosystems and on its failure to meaningfully consult Indigenous peoples.
But is this ruling a slam dunk? What’s to be made of the heated, even hysterical, reaction from some quarters? And where could or should things go from here?
Back at this all-new roundtable this week are Kim TallBear, associate professor of Native Studies at the University of Alberta, and Candis Callison, visiting professor of Canadian Studies at Princeton University (on leave from UBC).
Analyses and interviews discussed this week include:
- Trans Mountain Expansion approval overturned by Federal Court
- Alberta premier Rachel Notley on As It Happens, Aug. 31, 2018: audio [begins at 11:01] (transcript)
- Impact of Trans Mountain ruling: CBC News Network panel (feat. Pam Palmater)
- The Trans Mountain blame game and why we should get ready for Premier Jason Kenney
- The Trans Mountain court ruling would have us accept a moral duty we can't yet meet
- As Alberta steams, Ottawa scrambles for pipeline fix
