Quotes

The United States Environmental Protection Agency also flat out disagrees with Canada's assertion, stating that "over a 50 year period the additional C02 [emitted] from oil sands crude transported by the pipeline could be as much as 935 million metric tons." Frankly, I would trust your scientists over my own government
...Why? The company had just announced that they were going to going to a model of "fly in, fly out In Labrador City. We're not talking about an isolated site in the middle of nowhere where there's no development and no community, we're talking about a city in Labrador. And the company has essentially decided that it wanted to start to "de-vitalize" it, sucking the life out of this city by flying in and flying out millwrights. That's a recipe for disaster."
...We can't accept these navigable rights being denied," Cllr Reilly said. Ahead of the Orders being published, DRD Minister Danny Kennedy said: "Following publication, there will be a statutory consultation period of at least 30 days and, subject to any objections received, there is a possibility of a public inquiry.?Draft Orders had been prepared previously but these were redrafted, to take account of late changes to the vessel protection system being provided in association with this bridge and the Operating Procedures which were agreed with Louth County Council.?Roads Service understands these changes largely arose from recent discussions which Louth County Council and Newry and Mourne District Council representatives had with the shellfish fishermen, who currently operate upstream of the proposed bridge site."
"It's our intention to re-protect this water, to re-protect this wonderful piece of Canada that is the water source for much of Toronto and the five million people who live in the GTA" he said
