I went looking for information and couldn't find one darn thing regarding an announcement of this or anything else. It doesn't matter if it is the West Coast or the East Coast. The people living in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick have been against any drilling in the Bay of Fundy for years and then this happens. Why all the secrecy..it doesn't matter, the same Government doesn't care about this country from one end to the other. I hope I have made myself understood.

This post, however, is not about a drilling platform that will be drilling for conventional oil off Nova Scotia. This post is about a pipeline intended to convey 900,000 barrels of dilbit every day to the west coast and the process or lack of it behind the line's approval. One is not the same as the other which is why there's no mention of the drilling platform in this post.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-41837096387964460642018-04-25T12:51:13.969-07:002018-04-25T12:51:13.969-07:00That is not the only rigging going on.

It is an ongoing maneuver all over this country since at least 1949 and continues...only shareholders benefit. Anyong.

(It is still there but in the side-collection of older articles while other articles of the same vintage are still in the main body. Whether their ranking system is human (ideological) or algorithmic (based on clicks) it is disappointing. <br /><br />No other outlets (that I can find) have run the story. Not even after N. Cullen raised it in QP. <br />The follow-up (Observer) article on Cullen's question and Trudeau's non-response didn't make NNW or appear anywhere beyond our 'progressive bubble'.<br /><br />So on this one ...<br />"Whether these revelations are enough at this late stage for a court to upend Trudeau's corrupt review process and send them back to square one"<br />... please don't hold your breath. <br /><br />Nothing to see here, move along.<br /><br />Methinks that by installing all the floating barb-wire and getting the Crown to "criminalizing" the recent peaceful protests, while ignoring the real issues, the 'authorities' are asking for big trouble. The word 'provoke' comes to mind. If a passionate person is already risking criminal charges, they might decide that it's is worth the risk to escalate the fight.<br /><br />Oka was a long way from a city and the indigenous folks there (unlike Vancouver) were not supported by the majority of their settler neighbours.

The BC Greens, under-represented as we are, have to choose our fights. Horgan's NDP are consummate green washers. They opposed the Liberals' carbon tax, arguing it would cost their monster pickup truck driving constituents too much during their 2 hour, 8-cylinder turbo-charged commute to work in downtown Vancouver.<br /><br />On the environment overall the BC NDP are not particularly distant from their BC Lib predecessors. Thank Loki that the Greens got a few seats in what might otherwise have been a draw.<br /><br />Horgan is happily endorsing the BC coal industry and the haplessly fracked BC natural gas fields. That's all you need to know how sincere he is on Trans Canada without a Green knife to his throat.<br /><br />The Greens are driving the controversy in this session of Parliament. They have no choice. If we lose on this corrupt, bitumen madness, we just might of well say "we've lost" and go on about other things.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-46879287849752633122018-04-24T18:12:50.046-07:002018-04-24T18:12:50.046-07:00Just another example of the ,non existent, deep st...Just another example of the ,non existent, deep state!<br />Much like Premier John Horgan!<br />Are we just fooled easily or is there no point in voting?<br /><br /><br /><br />TBTrailblazerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03436709163754934547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-81760922090365638932018-04-24T16:48:56.928-07:002018-04-24T16:48:56.928-07:00.. this one just stinks from any angle

Even Ontario's former <a href="http://torontosun.com/2016/10/21/liberal-tory-same-old-story/wcm/985591a5-6de7-495b-a242-9ddf1fa8ed6d" rel="nofollow">high-school-dropout education minister</a> gets it:<br /><br /><i>You don’t have to be an Einstein to notice that the Trudeau Liberals have adopted many of the Harper government policies they so despised when they where in opposition.<br /><br />From climate change targets to not adopting the UN declaration on the rights of indigenous people, the new, more congenial and certainly more photogenic Trudeau government has largely stayed the course set by dowdy old Stephen Harper.</i><br /><br />As an aside, Snobelin is the only guy I've ever heard of who was charged with possession of a prohibited or restricted firearm with ammunition and walked away with an absolute discharge!
