Enbridge is a Canadian multi-national pipeline and energy company headquartered in Calgary. It owns and operates pipelines throughout Canada and the United States, transporting petroleum products and generating renewable energy.

Our concern is Line 5 that makes its journey from Canada, crossing the Straits of Mackinac as it continues south and goes into Ontario at Port Huron. What is the concern about digging a Straits tunnel just east of Big Mac?

Presenting the position of Enbridge is Anna Mooney, Manager of Government Relations for Enbridge.
