Media Release: Ottawa’s designation of the Roberts Bank Terminal 2 expansion as a project of national interest is designed to circumvent Canada’s Species at Risk Act and avoid protecting #endangered killer whales. #orcas raincoast.org/press/robertsb…
A statement from @Raincoast, said the @PortofVan would have been required to obtain a permit under the Species At Risk Act related to the whales, but Friday’s announcement overrides that process. #orcas #salmon cheknews.ca/ottawa-lists-rob…

The planned Roberts Bank Terminal 2 expansion, which is expected to add 2.4 million containers of capacity at the Port of Vancouver, the largest in the country, has officially been named a project of national interest.

The Raincoast Conservation Foundation said the port authority would have needed a Species at Risk Act permit, and that the listing overrides that process. #orcas #endangered businessexaminer.ca/bc-news/…

The @Raincoast fact sheets bring together key findings on the ecological importance of the Fraser River Estuary, the role of estuarine #habitat in sustaining wild salmon, and the cumulative pressures facing #endangered Southern Resident killer #whales. They also explain the scientific and legal principles that should guide decisions about projects. raincoast.org/2026/10/scient…
