The newly elected MP for Burnaby North Seymour, in British Columbia, Canada, has told reporters that Kinder Morgan Canada faces a new review process for the proposed Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project.
This could mean further delays for the CAN$5.4 billion project, which would more than triple the existing pipelinedzԹs capacity to ship crude to the Burnaby, B.C., terminus for loading onto tankers.

New Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said his government would ban oil tanker traffic on British ColumbiadzԹs northern coast, a move that would almost certainly render Enbridge Inc.dzԹs Northern Gateway pipeline to Kitimat useless, as the crude could not be exported from there.
In related news, the NEB has announced a new timetable for final oral arguments for the proposed expansion.
Intervenors hoping to make their final case will have to refile a notice of intent with the NEB by 5 November for hearings set in Burnaby and Calgary.
