"RCMP Arrest Protesters at Kinder Morgan Tar Sands Pipeline Expansion"

"BURNABY, British Columbia – An 11-year-old girl was among those arrested Sunday as a crowd protested survey work by the Texas-based Kinder Morgan company for a tar sands pipeline expansion through the Vancouver suburb of Burnaby.

In late October, Canada’s National Energy Board granted Kinder Morgan access to begin work on their TransMountain tar sands pipeline expansion project in a designated conservation area on Burnaby Mountain.

In response, community members have established a camp and prevented Kinder Morgan from accessing the site. They have been slapped with a C$5.6 million dollar lawsuit by Kinder Morgan and are facing an injunction from the company."
