Premier Christy Clark said she's still waiting for Premier Alison Redford to call about giving BC a "fair share" of the environmental risks and revenues from the proposed Enbridge Northern Gateway oil pipeline project, as the province cross-examines Enbridge at the Northern Gateway Joint Review Panel hearings for the first time this afternoon in Edmonton.

"Today is about making sure that we're protecting the environment no matter what fair share we finally ultimately negotitate for BC in terms of jobs and economic benefit, there is no fair share we can make up for catastrophic damage to the environment," Clark said, adding that Alberta premier Alison Redford should call her to negotiate "fair share." 

Clark made the comments in a surprise appearence with Environment Minister Terry Lake and former BC Attorney General Jeff Plant at the Vancouver International Airport this morning before Lake and Plant boarded their flight for Edmonton.

However, critics disagreed with Clark's suggestion that BC could reach a deal with Alberta insuring the province against a potential oil spill.
