Trans Mountain pipeline owner asks regulator to hide identity of its insurers: Federal government-owned Trans Mountain is asking the Canada Energy
Regulator to keep secret the identities of the companies that provide
insurance coverage for its pipeline system because of fears
environmental activists will target them.
In a submission dated Monday, the company that operates the Trans
Mountain pipeline and its expansion project says there is evidence that
“certain parties” are using filings in the regulator’s database to
identify insurers and pressure them to drop their policies for the
pipeline.
The filings come days after Indigenous youth in Vancouver blocked the
entrances of buildings housing insurance companies to demand they stop
insuring the pipeline, resulting in four arrests.
