Nathan Cullen's request to cross-examine officials from the departments of the environment, natural resources, transport and fisheries and oceans was met by a letter from the Department of Justice asking the panel to deny his appeal.
"It's a bit of an intimidation tactic," says Cullen. "All along, if you've been opposed or raised concerns about this pipeline, Mr. Harper's government has called you a radical or an enemy of the state. These are all tactics to say 'you're just going to have to accept what we tell you to accept.'"

Right or wrong the Northern Gateway pipeline will be forced upon us and should there be an environmental spill, we are all aware of Enbridges record and lack of conscience, Canadians will pay the price.
All questions should be asked and answered so we, the citizens, know that our government acted in our best interest and not industries.
We deserve better
