Amy Janzwood’s Mega Pipelines Mega Resistance is the definitive account of the Trans Mountain and Northern Gateway pipeline struggles in British Columbia in the late 2000s. It’s exhaustively researched, detailed and meticulous — qualities that leave no doubt about the credibility of the razor-sharp analysis Janzwood provides throughout. The relationships and contention between pipeline companies, provincial and federal governments, regulatory agencies, Indigenous land defenders and frontline communities, and social movement coalitions comprise a complex landscape. This book is a reliable map. Check out this wide-ranging conversation with the author about the book’s many insights into ongoing struggles over resource extraction in Canada.
