Natives and Activists I’ve pretty much given up on Canada in terms of its ability to build large scale pipelines. The Natives have too much power and it only takes a small percentage of them to shut everything down. The activists are too well organized and skillful in media, legal and political manipulation. The current government is looking to pass both Bill C 69 and Bill C 262 which will give both of the aforementioned groups even greater ability to shut down resource development. Most of the people in favour of pipelines, other than energy workers or Albertans, are not in favour so much that they are willing to do anything about it.
I wonder if losing the largest private investment in Canadian history based on the will of a 300-1000 Natives will push Trudeau to make some changes. Then I come to the conclusion to put my money elsewhere.
