    1. Safer for who? The nesting bird with no tree? The deer with no walkable path? It is a boundary. Like rail, you may be killed if crossing it.

    2. @Ibex Wildrose wow. Stupid on a whole new level. You need to educate yourself because your stupid is showing.

    3. @Heather Hardy accually dumass he is right and the facts are on the government website if you yourself care to be educated.

    4. @Ibex Wildrose have you ever been to a pipeline? I gonna say No! Minimal trees are taken for a pipeline, hence the word “line”, they “Do Not Clearcut”..they Do Not pipeline during nesting season, any bird or animal!. The dirtbags Make sure that the soils are removed layer by layer and put back in the correct order. Then it is seeded . They do not pipeline through creeks and rivers, they bore underneath creeks and if rivers are 2 wide you will see it above the river…Please educate yourself! Go ask some farmers where they have pipelines..Stop with the birds and animals.

  1. Montreal dumped sewage into the St Lawrence , clearly the environmental concerns for the water were missed by the Montreal grand chief .

    1. Montreal island know before as blood island algonquins and Hurons killed like crazy by Mohawks and Iroquois. For furs

  2. Maybe canadians need to remove the blockades ourselves, boots in the liberals paid protesters faces, than we send the RCMP home, they’re clearly useless in this situation.

  3. No you CROSS THAT LINE when you thought it was ok to hold and entire nation hostage because you didnt like the outcome in BC!!!

  4. These very few hereditary Chiefs who oppose the project….and most support the pipeline….but the few who do not are being paid of by the Tides Foundation and other foreign environmental groups. This is a fact. So these hypocrites jump on a plane and fly to Ontario lol liars and hypocrites

  5. Why is that Canadians can’t compromise anymore??? There’s a lot of Canadians that need/depend/rely on oil and gas to support their homes and the Canadian economy. Ok we get it there are some of you that don’t want it, but instead of bitching about what you don’t want and holding fellow Canadians hostage, why not use that leverage to achieve something you do want from the vast profits that will come with getting Canadian resources to market….request funding be established for new forests, clean up rivers and waterways, promoting education and reinvesting in ways to improve on an industry that already
    sets the world standard. There’s better ways to sort this rather than just bitching, sooner or later we will get our pipelines with or without you, with you would be quicker of course and everyone would win through a little sacrifice, or keep bitching and get nothing out of the deal lol

  6. The “Solution” to the Blockades is to Enforce the Law so that a minority of Far Left Marxist/Anarchists and their Indian Allies arn’t dictating to the Majority of Canadians..Remove the Blockades,….If these were Pro-Life activists they would have been removed and charged with obstruction and defiance of a court order 16 days ago…How much MORE Extortion Money is this going to cost the working middle class Canadians in Pay Outs to get a “Solution” to this blockade?

  7. THIS is the time to use Greta’s ” HOW DARE YOU!!” fave of the government against The Government.. Environment FIRST MUST BE cared for, and the RESPECT and HONOR of those who ARE standing up for the protection of clean air, water, and the rest… DEAL with those imposing Permits to make SURE the children DO have HEALTH. To NOT DO this is A SURE ARROW to what is REALLY IMPORTANT to the government. Revealed. No more Lying. Do they talk from both sides of their mouths or do they Not?
