Energy minister to brief B.C. Liberal MPs on expected Alberta pipeline deal

OTTAWA - Energy and Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson is set to brief B.C. Liberal MPs today on the government's expected energy deal with the province of Alberta.

The move comes after B.C. Liberal MPs last week said any deal involving a pipeline to the West Coast would need consent from First Nations and the B.C. government, repeating talking points from the government in recent weeks.
