The Union of British Columbia Municipalities opposes the project. Every first nation along the pipeline and tanker routes opposes the project. The majority of British Columbians oppose the project, including the residents of Kitimat, who rejected it in a plebiscite.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3799960\" data-originallang=\"en\">The <a data-HoCid=\"78738\" href=\"/politicians/stephen-harper/\" title=\"Stephen Harper\">Prime Minister</a> once urged the province of Alberta to resist heavy-handed tactics from a hostile federal government.

L'Union des municipalit\u00e9s de la Colombie-Britannique s'y oppose. La totalit\u00e9 des Premi\u00e8res Nations situ\u00e9es le long des endroits o\u00f9 il y aura un pipeline ou des p\u00e9troliers \u00e9galement. La majorit\u00e9 des Britanno-Colombiens s'opposent eux aussi \u00e0 ce projet, y compris les habitants de Kitimat, qui se sont m\u00eame prononc\u00e9s dans le cadre d'un r\u00e9f\u00e9rendum.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3799960\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le <a data-HoCid=\"78738\" href=\"/politicians/stephen-harper/\" title=\"Stephen Harper\">premier ministre</a> a d\u00e9j\u00e0 fait pression aupr\u00e8s du gouvernement de l'Alberta pour qu'il r\u00e9siste aux tactiques muscl\u00e9es d'un ancien gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral \u00e0 l'attitude hostile.
