Graphic of the week: What B.C. thinks of a new oil pipeline
AI Article Summary
A new poll by the Angus Reid Institute reveals that while most Canadians support the construction of a pipeline from Alberta to British Columbia's northern coast, the support within British Columbia itself is not as strong. This pipeline project has sparked varied opinions, reflecting regional differences within Canada.
What This Means for Canadian Contractors
For Canadian builders, this means there is potential for increased workloads and project opportunities if the pipeline project proceeds. However, given the mixed support in British Columbia, obtaining necessary permits and local approvals could face delays or additional challenges. This project highlights the need for contractors to engage in dialogue with local communities and stakeholders early on to mitigate risks related to timelines and costs.
