Trans Mountain ‘pipeline is going to get built’: Trudeau dismisses B.C.’s bitumen ban
- Thread starter mentalfloss
- Start date
Foreign interests behind effort to stop Trans Mountain Pipeline
Environmental groups – backed by the U.S.-based Tides Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation and other well-endowed U.S. funds – met in 2008 to hatch a strategy, called the Tarsands Campaign, to landlock Alberta oil and prevent it from reaching international markets to fetch international prices.
The most recent manifestation of the anti-tarsands campaign was the green movement’s interference in the 2015 federal election, in a coordinated effort to defeat Conservatives in 25 out of 29 targeted ridings. It was spearheaded and bragged about by LeadNow.
Now these groups are at it again. All you have to do is track the loudest voices trying to shut down Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain Pipeline and you will find 350.org. It’s a familiar name; most recently in the news as part of the bizarre New York City press conference that launched a lawsuit trying to pin the blame for Hurricane Sandy on five oil companies.
But 350.org was also one of the groups that coordinated to issue a laudatory press release after the B.C. NDP government announced its plan to restrict bitumen coming into B.C.
Krause has just discovered where 350.org got their funding, from their most recent 2016 U.S. annual return. Most of it came from massive donations from just four sources: $4 million from one donor, $3 million from another and two others for $500,000.
Why should we care who 350.org is? Because they are behind the latest campaign targeting the oilsands – called the KM Action Hive Proposal.
Boy oh boy!
You protestors are the most unashamedly blatant liars around.
Goebbels would have been proud of you.
Hoidie conveniently dismisses the fact that several Vancouver beaches had to be closed this summer due to extremely high fecal coliform counts. Meanwhile the dimwits who live down there were gaily going about their swimming and boarding and other water sports. Little wonder that the Left Coast is so totally screwed up - talk about shit for brains.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Typical LIE-beral Whale Crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The three biggest problems facing Whales - AND ALL OTHER west coast marine mammals are these:
Getting enough to eat- thanks to over fishing that LIE-berals are IGNORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And FILTHY water conditions due to dumping of sewage that LIE-berals are ignoring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And industrial and farm chemical run off that LIE-berals are ignoring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Fraser River delta is one of the most polluted places in Canada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And sewage is entering the Fraser River at multiple locations- far up stream from the ocean- and LIE-berals are ignoring that too!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Most important is the continual harrassment by tourist boats. The anti everything crowd pretends to be mortified by the prospect of 1 extra ship a day but totally ignores 50 plus whale watching boats buzzing the pods 7 days a week.
Same as that Moose that drowned the other day people gathered at the beach where it wanted to come out, taking pictures until it drowned.
He can't hear you, he has his ears plugged, staring blankly into space and is humming kumbaya.
