For Immediate Release June 2, Algonquin Territory (Ottawa)– TransCanada’s underbelly is exposed in a new report by the Polaris Institute that paints a troubling picture of the company’s track record. The report entitled Unplugging the Dirty Energy Economy: A Corporate Profile of Canadian Pipeline Company TransCanada , dissects the company piece by piece in order to critically examine its economic, political, social and environmental track record and provides valuable information that communities in contact with TransCanada should be aware of. This new report from from the Polaris Institute will be a key resource for people who are facing the real possibility of a TransCanada pipeline passing through their communities. The case studies and stories presented in the profile show that these communities have good reasons to doubt the information that they are receiving from the company.
