Prime Minister Mark Carney will be in Prince Rupert on Tuesday for a meeting with Coastal First Nations.
Coastal First Nations is a non-profit formed by several First Nations on B.C.’s north coast.
Coastal First Nations has said repealing the federal oil tanker moratorium in B.C.’s northern waters to route a pipeline there would threaten the environment and local economies.
Premier David Eby and Coastal First Nations signed a joint declaration in early November, calling on the federal government to uphold the oil tanker ban.
He has said repealing the oil tanker ban would threaten First Nations’ support for other major projects in B.C.
