The Trans Mountain Pipeline has been temporarily shut down as rainstorms hit parts of British Columbia.
The line, which runs from Alberta to the B.C. coast, has a capacity of 300,000 barrels a day of oil, and other petroleum products.
The company, which is owned by the federal government, says work on the pipeline expansion project has also been halted because of the downpour and mudslides.

As the situation in B.C. continues to unfold, there is no estimate as to when work on the pipeline is expected to restart.
There have been several reports of people stuck in their vehicles from the mudslides and hundred of cars stuck with nowhere to go as they wait on crews to clear things up.
Parts of several highways in B.C., including Highway 1, Lougheed Highway and the Coquihalla Highway have all been closed.
