The Vancouver Province pulled a video satirizing Enbridge's claims about its Northern Gateway pipeline off its website after the company threatened to pull advertising, says the cartoonist who created the animation.
But the paper's editor-in-chief denies the company complained or made any threats.
Dan Murphy, who draws editorial cartoons and creates videos for the newspaper's website, said he learned of the threat from a newsroom supervisor shortly after the video was posted on the Province's site Friday morning.
"Enbridge was going to pull a million dollars worth of advertising if it (didn't) come down," Murphy said.
