Canada won’t appeal a court decision that quashed the federally owned Trans Mountain pipeline project, but will relaunch consultations in a bid to get it built.
The government will re-initiate consultations with all 117 indigenous groups impacted by the project, and discuss “how to get this process right this time,” Natural Resources Minister Amarjeet Sohi said Wednesday in Ottawa.
