Pipeline safety, environmental assessment questioned in Saskatchewan
It is now more than a week since Husky oil spilled in to the North Saskatchewan River.
Major questions are being asked not only about the safety of pipelines but also the strength of the environmental assessment to which they are subject to.
This particular spill came from a section of Husky pipeline built in 1997.
In recent years Husky has been expanding its pipeline system and it has now been revealed those new sections, added in 2014, were not subject to an environmental assessment.
