Leaky pipeline spilled 225,000 litres of heavy oil, 40% got into North Saskatchewan River
An assistant professor at the University of Saskatchewan has received a federal grant of $224,000 to study the effect the 2016 Husky oil spill had on fish.
A faulty pipeline leaked about 225,000 litres of oil onto a riverbank near Maidstone in July 2016. About 40 per cent of the oil made its way into the North Saskatchewan River.
