By North Road, close to where the original Homes Creek tree-sit was located, three TMX workers were photographed with their masks off. They were standing closely and talking. Mike Galliford shares what he photographed. “I took the photo around 1:50pm today. They’re going without masks after TMX construction re-opened after two months to review safety protocols over dangerous work conditions and TMX workers testing positive for COVID”. 

On December 17, 2020, Trans Mountain shut their operations after a TMX worker was seriously injured at the Burnaby Terminal site on December 15,2020. In October, another TMX worker was killed after being struck by a piece of equipment in Edmonton on the job site. 
As of late December 28, 2020, 91 TMX workers had tested positive for COVID. TMX resumed operations on February 8, 2021.
Burnaby mother and member of BROKE (Burnaby Residents Opposing Kinder Morgan Expansion), Sara Ross says “I spoke to the City of Vancouver and City of Burnaby about this. Both places told me there are no mask requirements for outside. They also suggested reporting directly to the company which is useless!”
Media Coop did contact Trans Mountain and they couldn’t be reached for comment.
