On October 10, CKUT 90.3FM and the 麻豆AV Sustainability Projects Fund hosted the second installment of 鈥淯nder the Weather,鈥澛燼 monthly series聽focusing on climate change.

This month鈥檚 panel focused on Line 9, a pipeline owned by Enbridge Inc. that runs across Ontario and Quebec. The panel came a day before聽National Energy Board hearings聽on Enbridge鈥檚 proposal to reverse and expand the flow of Line 9 wrapped up in Montreal.

Line 9 was originally built in 1976 and flowed eastward to Montreal, but was reversed in 1998 to flow westward. It was built to transport traditional crude oil, but the proposed reversal will include the transportation of bitumen from the Alberta oil sands.
