Kinder Morgan Canada Ltd.’s shares tumbled in the company’s public debut as new risks threatened to stall a major pipeline expansion to Canada’s West Coast.

But shares in the company’s Canadian unit immediately fell on Tuesday as investors weighed possible impacts of a minority government led by British Columbia’s New Democratic Party on the $7.4-billion expansion.
