| Northwest Power Line Coalition Releases Online Video |
DEASE LAKE, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - March 25, 2010) - The Northwest Power Line Coalition today released a short video online to help educate and inform British Columbians about the possibilities and benefits of the construction of a transmission line up Highway 37 in British Columbia's northwest.
"We have put together a short video to expose the opportunity the Northwest Transmission Line represents to British Columbians and our friends in neighbouring jurisdictions," announced Coalition Co-Chair Janine North. "We think it's an excellent tool to inform the public and we hope everyone who watches the video comes to the same conclusion."
The ten minute video, created with First Nations expertise, is another tool the Coalition is using to get the word out about the significance of the $400 million transmission line which is to run from Terrace to Bob Quinn along Highway 37 in the province's far northwest, an area of underdevelopment and high unemployment.
"Not everyone is aware of the importance of the power line and not everyone has time to delve into all the reports and documents," added Coalition Co-Chair, Gitxsan Hereditary Chief Elmer Derrick. "This is a way for more people to come to know and understand why we believe this project is so important."
