KJIPUKTUK (Halifax) – Feeling the pressure of increased public scrutiny, the Canada-Nova Scotia Offshore Petroleum Board (CNSOPB) met this afternoon with municipal councillors from western Nova Scotia, hoping to convince them that offshore oil exploration is safe.
The CNSOPB is the federal-provincial body that gave BP, one of the world’s worst polluters, the go-ahead to resume drilling for oil along the Scotian Shelf after it spilled 136,000 litres of synthetic drilling fluid. #nspoli
