Northern Gateway pipeline approved with 209 conditions

It could go through the US below the lakes and be shorter.

They won't move an old pipe for that....

They aren't pay $36In BC to somebody who just walked out of a premployment course.

Labourers rate is around $34.

I don't think so. Hard to predict of course, but I suspect this will evolve to soemthing like the "war in the woods" of the 80s, over concerns with forestry practices. One of the conditions for the pipeline is consultation with First Nations, and that's going to be a mighty hard condition to meet, considering the overwhelming opposition by First Nations.

Consultation, not capitulation. Enbridge has been consulting with everyone for years and wasted tons of money doing it. Time to lay pipe.

FN's will own 10% of the NGPL. As owners of the evil beast they better keep leaping over the high bar they've set with more than just sweet grass and hiyiyis.

Time this country came to the realisation it is not native land, not the developed land.
Second the pipe is being laid, and when it is all laid and operational, I highly suspect the 'conditions' will go by the wayside.
I am all for this project, but not to give the Indians any royalties, they need to work for the land and pay for it like we do. Time to move on and quit blaming and start doing.

Finally, a fellow traveler!. Yes Comrade smallandmighty, I too am against land ownership. I assume that's why you think First Nations should be deprived of their land rights. Because you're a communist, right?

OK, so physicists, meteorologists, and biologists aren't qualified to speak on climate change, but an oceanographer is qualified to speak on pipelines.

Is Cousteau not allowed an opinion?

You're condemning him solely based on his French heritage aren't you...

Racist

LOL! Really? THAT gullible?
