Enbridge Inc. and the Canadian government won’t appeal a recent court decision that reversed federal approval for the company to build an oil conduit to the country’s Pacific Coast.
The pipeline company, which is buying Spectra Energy Corp., supports the Federal Court of Appeal’s recommendation for additional consultation with affected aboriginal communities, Calgary-based Enbridge said Tuesday in a statement. Speaking in Ottawa on Tuesday, Natural Resources Minister Jim Carr said the government also won’t appeal the decision.
