[All] Line 9 update

[Louisette Lanteigne]

 Line 9 was approved with condtions but It AIN't OVER...

Page 20 of the ruling:

"The Board has not granted Enbridge's request for exemption from the need to  apply for leave to open (LTO) as required by section 47 of the NEB Act. Enbridge  will have to apply separately for LTO and the Board has imposed a number of conditions and requirements that Enbridge must fulfill before applying for LTO."

NGO's are gearing up for round 2. So far we're not happy with the following:

No hydrostatic testing
Unresolved First Nation violations to Treaty Rights. 
Still major issues to discuss including W5's expose on Enbridge's secrecy of oil spills and lack of municipal notification for these incidents.

And lots more.

Tomorrow there is big Rally in Toronto regarding Line 9 putting pressure on the Province to step up to do an Environmental Audit. 12 Noon, Queen's Park.

I'll keep working on this baby. Bit by bit.
