The report, prepared by the West Coast Environmental Law Association ("West Coast") also calls for a national scientific committee to advise both levels of government on what needs to be done to fight climate change in Canada. West Coast has sent the report to the federal, provincial and territorial environment ministers, many of whom are participating in the climate talks in Paris. </p>]]></content> <dc:identifier>1072408</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>West Coast Environmental Law Association</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Tue, 19 Sep 2017 03:19 GMT</dc:modified> </entry> <entry> <id>https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2015/10/26/1072406/0/en/Advisory-Press-Conference-Oct-27-8-30am-Tsleil-Waututh-takes-NEB-Kinder-Morgan-review-to-Federal-Court.html</id> <title type="text">Advisory: Press Conference Oct.27 8:30am, Tsleil-Waututh takes NEB Kinder Morgan review to Federal Court</title> <published>2015-10-26T14:00:00Z</published> <updated>2024-11-25T12:59:22Z</updated> <link rel="alternate" href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2015/10/26/1072406/0/en/Advisory-Press-Conference-Oct-27-8-30am-Tsleil-Waututh-takes-NEB-Kinder-Morgan-review-to-Federal-Court.html" /> <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p><em><p>NEB's Kinder Morgan Review on trial in new round of First Nations legal opposition to pipelines</p></em></p><p><strong>VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Oct. 26, 2015) -</strong> </p>]]></content> <dc:identifier>1072406</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>GlobeNewswire Inc.</dc:publisher> <dc:contributor>West Coast Environmental Law Association</dc:contributor> <dc:modified>Tue, 19 Sep 2017 03:19 GMT</dc:modified> </entry> <entry> <id>https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2015/10/14/1072404/0/en/Media-Release-In-Wake-of-Systemic-Dismantling-of-Canada-s-Environmental-Laws-Political-Parties-vie-for-Environmental-High-Ground.html</id> <title type="text">Media Release: In Wake of Systemic Dismantling of Canada's Environmental Laws, Political Parties vie for Environmental High Ground</title> <published>2015-10-14T13:00:00Z</published> <updated>2024-11-25T12:59:22Z</updated> <link rel="alternate" href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2015/10/14/1072404/0/en/Media-Release-In-Wake-of-Systemic-Dismantling-of-Canada-s-Environmental-Laws-Political-Parties-vie-for-Environmental-High-Ground.html" /> <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p><strong>VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA and MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Oct. 14, 2015) -</strong> Approaching an election in which the environment will be a concern for many Canadians, a new report by environmental lawyers from across the country assesses the federal government's environmental track record, painting a grim picture that highlights the repeal or amendment of most of Canada's foundational environmental laws since 2011.
