With some financial support from the Kwantlen Student Association, the Kwantlen First Nation is planning a building project meant to throw an obstacle in the way of the Kinder Morgan pipeline.

The KSA will contribute $6,000 towards a healing lodge that will be constructed on Kwantlen First Nation Territory, directly in the path of the planned oil pipeline. The build is expected to begin in August with the lodge to be fully functional by September.

The contribution was approved by the KSA after a June meeting of Council during which Stand With Kwantlen Founder Justin Bige and KSA Aboriginal Constituency Representative Samantha Davis delivered a presentation requesting support.
