Last week, the Liberals and NDP defeated Bill C-229, which would have lifted the ban on west coast Canadian oil tankers. The bill was introduced last year, and aimed to repeal Bill C-48, which was passed in 2019 and prohibits tankers carrying more than 12,500 tonnes of crude oil from stopping at B.C. ports between the northern tip of Vancouver Island and the southern tip of the Alaskan Panhandle.
