Métis leaders in oilsands region say they haven’t been consulted on proposed Pacific Link pipeline

Métis leaders in Fort McMurray are raising concerns over the lack of consultation regarding the proposed Pacific Link pipeline. Despite meetings between Prime Minister Mark Carney and nearby First Nations chiefs, the Métis community feels sidelined. This omission is significant as the Métis hold traditional lands through which the pipeline would pass, raising questions about environmental and cultural impacts. Their lack of involvement could lead to broader tensions and legal challenges as the project progresses.
