B.C. government files paperwork seeking intervener status in court case against Kinder Morgan
The B.C. government has formally applied for intervener status in a court case involving Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain pipeline.
Attorney General David Eby said government lawyers on Tuesday filed the required paperwork with the Federal Court of Appeal to seek intervener status in upcoming court proceedings that seek to overturn the project’s environmental approval.
“The court has to grant us permission and this filing today is the first step in that process,” Eby said in an interview. “It’s not our substantive legal argument, that we will make in front of the court. It’s simply a request in front of the court to be able to make that argument.”
The Federal Court will hear one case that combines 19 separate lawsuits from First Nations, local governments and environmental organizations that are seeking to overturn the National Energy Board’s review process into the pipeline project. They are arguing a variety of matters, including whether First Nations were adequately consulted.
