Kneeling before the False Profit - The Almighty Dollar

Northern Gateway environmental studies not available ......

Documents filed with the National Energy Board show the environmental review panel studying the Northern Gateway project asked Fisheries and Oceans Canada for risk assessments for the bodies of water the proposed pipeline will cross. The pipeline is to traverse nearly 1,000 streams and rivers in the upper Fraser, Skeena and Kitimat watersheds.

The department didn't have them.

I'm shocked .... NOT .... it was obvious from the beginning that the Conservatives intended to push the Northern Gateway through regardless of opposition from environmentalists, BC or the First Nations People who's land will be compromised.

Clean up for Enbridges Michigan spill was over 800,000,000 million dollars and no one knows what the long term effect will be...... so who cares??? Not the Conservatives.

Now Enbridge produces an animated video and erases islands .....

It would appear that our present government kneels before the False Profit ... the Almighty Dollar.

  1. It gives a whole new meaning to the expression " kicking the problem downstream".

    It's as though we agreed to abandon our children and theirs.
