Dozens Arrested Protesting Canada's Kinder Morgan Pipeline
----------------------------------------------------------

In Canada, dozens of indigenous youth and their allies were arrested
protesting the expansion of Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain pipeline,
which would triple the amount of oil flowing from Alberta's tar sands to
the coast of British Columbia. Among those arrested in Burnaby on
Saturday were Green Party leader Elizabeth May and Parliament member
Kennedy Stewart. More than 170 people have been arrested protesting the
pipeline over the last week alone.
