Gives one some hope projects can actually happen in Canada. Hopefully when its approved next week it dials down some of the anger. Then If TECK doesn't go forward with the project because the prices aren't there (north of $70 -$75 per barrel) it'll be hard for Strome and co to blame JT. Somehow I think they will try.

Environmental migrants or climate refugees[a] are people who are forced to leave their home region due to sudden or long-term changes to their local environment. hese claims have gained significant currency, with the most common projection being that the world will have 150–200 million climate change refugees by 2050.These claims have gained significant currency, with the most common projection being that the world will have 150–200 million climate change refugees by 2050. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_migrant Canada's climate contribution will not be the main cause of that. All you're doing is killing opportunities. You seem to be supportive of first nations leaders when it aligns with what you want, but when its not you post this kind of stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I particularly want first nations people to be able to get out of the devastating poverty cycle. You seem to value vague notions of being a climate activist but all you're doing is giving more opportunity to the Saudi's and Russia to sell oil and have our own people hurt. Give your head a shake man, and think about the consequences of what you're talking about. And spare me the climate spew, if the Cree first nation is OK with the project you should be too. careful Jimmy, you are starting to sound like a Conservative with posts like this 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science used to teach that little rocks fell slower than big rocks, science used to teach that the planets rotated around the earth, etc etc etc . And even now more than ever, science has become political depending on who is funding the grants as to which results get published. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least we have some positive news coming out now today.... A number of Wet’suwet’en supporters have blocked CN Rail tracks in east Vancouver on Sunday afternoon. About two dozen people stood on a set of rail tracks located near Venables and Clark on Sunday beginning around noon, as a show of solidarity for Wet’suwet’en hereditary chiefs who are currently fighting the construction of the Coastal GasLink pipeline on their traditional territory in northern B.C. Vancouver police officers reportedly visited the blockade shortly after it formed. There are no arrests reported at this time. The anti-pipeline protesters have said they are prepared to stay the night. https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/wetsuweten-supporters-block-cn-rail-tracks-in-east-vancouver Edited February 23, 2020 by kingofsurrey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
