The Globe and Mail reports in its Saturday edition that Vancouver's port authority says it will create an artificial island facility to load containers off Roberts Bank. The Globe's Mike Hager writes that what is not clear is whether construction plans could include upgrading the facility to receive the world's largest tankers to ship Alberta bitumen to Asian markets. Prime Minister Mark Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith announced an agreement on Thursday to develop a new pipeline to British Columbia's south coast. A map released by Alberta shows the proposed route following much of the existing Trans Mountain pipeline before splitting off in the Fraser Valley, east of Vancouver, to hug the United States border before ending at Roberts Bank. In a statement, the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority said Alberta's proposal is still at a conceptual stage and details regarding route and infrastructure have not been provided to the federal agency. The export terminal would equal the size of 485 football fields combined, with a tank farm of 15 containers that are able to store roughly 6.5 million barrels of oil. The nearby Tsawwassen First Nation say it does not know how a terminal and tank farm would fit in the area.
