Eight more protesters have been arrested on Burnaby Mountain today, including Simon Fraser science professor and protest organizer Lynne Quarmby.
Quarmby is named as a defendant in a Kinder Morgan lawsuit and an injunction to have the protesters removed, along with Mia Nissen, Adam Gold and fellow SFU professor Stephen Collis, and Alan Dutton, who leads the Burnaby Residents Opposing Kinder Morgan Expansion.
At a press conference organized by protesters, Quarmby denounced the Harper government’s omnibus bill, passed in 2012, that stripped environmental regulations from National Energy Board Act.
