Post Carbon Fellow David Hughes’ new report for the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives Will the Trans Mountain Pipeline and tidewater access boost prices and save Canada’s oil industry? was featured in The Tyee.

In a brief yet damning report David Hughes, a former federal government energy researcher, concluded that tripling the pipeline’s capacity won’t deliver an extra $73 billion in revenue over two decades as claimed by Kinder Morgan.
