Kinder Morgan Pipeline

Hundreds of business leaders urge B.C.’s Horgan to keep up Trans Mountain fight

More than 450 business leaders are speaking out against the Trans Mountain expansion project.
Notably, OpenText Co-Founder Tim Bray is among the long list of signatories of an open letter urging British Columbia Premier John Horgan to stand strong in his ongoing fight to block the project.
"Saying 'no' to the Trans Mountain pipeline not only protects the hundreds of thousands of jobs in British Columbia that depend on a clean, protected environment, saying 'no' is a crucial signal to companies, industries and investors that we want to build the future in areas like clean energy and technology," Tim Bray said in a release. "Saying 'no' to Kinder Morgan is saying 'yes' to British Columbia's real future."

Interesting article, Cliffy. I fully expect that each and every one of the 450 CEOs will be bringing their business to our province in order to provide employment for all those who will lose theirs should the line not proceed. I also expect that they will pony up the funds to provide legal aid and all fines assessed against the BC government when KM takes them to court for breech of contract.

Amazing isn't it, Tec. Appears all the FNs aren't speaking with 'one voice'. Guess this will come as surprise to those on the protest line saying otherwise.

For those of us living near reserves who interact on a daily basis with FNs, it comes as no surprise at all. Some are for, some are against and then there are those with no opinion at all. No different than the varying opinions of Canadians across the country.

Shouldn't come as any big surprise! I think most people "voice" things, according to how THEY are affected by them. "Look after # 1" is pretty well everyone's motto!

Thank-you B.C. for the oil discount

Congratulations and thanks to the citizens of B.C. who seem once again to have blocked an oil pipeline to the coast. Those of us living south of the border will continue to enjoy importing your oil at substantial discounts while exporting our oil from gulf ports at world-market prices. Your gift to us, around $100 million per day Canadian, is greatly appreciated. We marvel at your generosity while doubting your sanity. All of this will have zero impact on global climate, of course.

Not everyone's....just selfish people. I can't say I'm surprised you would think so though. Pretty much proves what I've been saying about you and your generation.

Banana? Try gloves, scraped knuckles make you cranky and childish.

Hopefully Horgan will be guided by right and wrong.

There are enough people simply acting in their own self interest

There most certainly are, Hoid and you can put Horgan at the very top of the list.

Horgan has painted himself into a real corner here... He's in a lose-lose situation

I may just have to reinstate my BC DL and BC Health and do a mail in vote when the election gets called for Sept-Oct.

 

[captain morgan]

I dunno about needing to do that.

Horgan has engineered a situation where both the greens and Libs benefit at the expense of the NDP, and it's almost a slam dunk that the public at large will punish him (especially if Notley hammers them at the pumps)

It's obvious that buddy has zero political savvy

 

[petros]

It's worth the $120.

 

[captain morgan]

take a pic of your ballot with your phone and email the image to Horgan and the Dippers.

.... just to piss 'em off a bit

 

[petros]

Good idea.

Which is what he is doing! The idiot has made promises he thought he could keep and had he have had half a brain he'd have known better. B.C. has no place for more drones and parasites!

Does anyone find it ironic that 44 seats was enough to sound the death knell for the Liberals, yet 42 breathed life into the Dippers?

Cranky and childish are mild compared to being a real Asshole. :lol:

Horgan has no choice he will have to jump through the greenweaver’s hoop or go to the polls .
