Council of Canadians and Social Coast to have an Open Bus instead of Kinder Morgan’s Open House

WHAT: Social Coast and Council of Canadians will be parked outside of Kinder Morgan’s Open House at the Union of BC Municipalities meeting today at 1:30pm (PST) to expose the real “surprises” to BC mayors and councillors. Instead of taking part in the Open House, activists will be encouraging Councillors to come to their Open Bus, and will be giving out Kinder surprises and talking about the real impacts of Kinder Morgan’s proposed pipeline, in contrast to the company’s lobbying efforts.

PHOTO OP: Council of Canadians and Social Coast will have a school bus and be handing out Kinder Surprises. There will also be a projection of the 2007 Kinder Morgan oil spill which took place in Burnaby.

WHEN: Thursday, September 27, 1:30pm

WHERE: 1070 Douglas Street, Suite 360, Victoria, BC

WHO: Council of Canadians and Social Coast
