Does anybody think that these people are trying to protect the environment?

I like to think so.

All about the money. Same as wasting time and money on yet another study and consultation. Hopefully the government will appeal this moronic decision. In fact if the government had any balls at all they would just send out the permits to start laying pipe and anyone that doesn't like it can move somewhere else.
The first pipeline to the west coast was completed in less time than the review process has take for NG. And peole wonder why Canada is considered a poor place to invest.

Social license is important.

No business should be able to do anything without it.

The Supreme Court has is increasingly arrogant It's set itself up a judicial tyranny.. a law unto itself.. adhering to the moral relativism and radical individualism of post structural ideology.. and to disassembly of federalism.

And they really are such slimy mediocrities (none moreso than that airhead 60s era feminist of a Chief Justice - Bev MacLaughlin). Maybe we should just ignore them.. they have no mandate and no electoral franchise.

But i suppose it would be easier to negate the Charter of Rights and Freedoms as judicial instrument, which is clogging the court system with inane 'victim' claims.. and put the Charter back where in belongs.. in the hands of legislatures.. and the people of Canada

Especially not about pretending to be part of a First Nations group lol
You can be white and be from the wrong side of the tracks and you end up having more in common with the Indian kids than the white kids. (whom argue with each other if there is nobody else around)
Persecution is persecution it doesn't matter where your feet are. It looks just like this every single time. This just highlights it when it is at it's most blatant.
