Buried deep in the announcement about Corridor Resources:

  https://www.thechronicleherald.ca/business/local-business/halifax-junior-oil-and-gas-company-corridor-resources-changing-name-management-397599/

there is an interesting paragraph:

  "In June 2019, the New Brunswick government issued an
   order-in-council that permits the Minister of Energy & Resource
   Development to exempt Corridor's McCully Field from the
   province-wide fracking moratorium."

Today's Tyee article about fracking in British Columbia adds more
information about the fracking issue.

  "BC Hydro officials warned .. that fracking near its dams could have
  grave consequences, including the worst possible outcome—an outright
  dam failure.."
