Activists Protest Keystone XL at TransCanada Offices 
-----------------------------------------------------


 
Protests were held nationwide Monday at the offices of the oil company
Trans Canada in opposition to the Keystone XL tar sands oil pipeline. At
least 50 activists with the group Tar Sands Blockade gathered at Trans
Canada's U.S. headquarters in Houston, leading to two arrests. Similar
actions were also held at Trans Canada offices in Massachusetts,
Michigan and Wisconsin, with another rally planned for today in New
York.
