There were 44,000 letters of comment yet only 18 intervenors representing less than one half of a percent of total participants. I was blessed to be a delegate at both Line 9 hearings. It was not easy. I could see many Canadians being excluded if they lacked access to internet or lacked the skills to fulfill requirements of participation. I am most concerned about the lack of voices of our eldery, First Nation's and low income participants simply because the parse used was complex. The formattting of data online was messy. It was difficult to find specific documents. Unless one was tech savy it is difficult to navigate through. Then we have the complexity of normal legal processes which is a high learning curve for those who cannot afford representation. The system was always designed to exclude those who lack the intelligence or the money but now it is far worse. This is to the point of being unreasonable and unaccessible.<br></font></div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_9995"><font id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416939434177_4970" size="3"><br></font></div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_9997"><font id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416939434177_4970" size="3"> Forest Ethics is now suing the NEB for using discretionary powers to limit public participation.</font></div></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><font id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416939434177_5283" size="3"><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.forestethics.org/news/kinder-morgan-constitutional-challenge-against-neb-proceed-court-appeal" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416939434177_4287">http://www.forestethics.org/news/kinder-morgan-constitutional-challenge-against-neb-proceed-court-appeal</a><br></font></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><font size="3"><br class="yiv0674176239" style="" clear="none"></font></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><b id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416939434177_4389"><font id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416939434177_6187" size="3">Lack of regard for Crown Consultation</font></b></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><font size="3"><br></font></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><font id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416939434177_4969" size="3">At the LIne 9 phase B hearing, Enbridge admitted they did not view a single Treaty even though Line 9 crosses 18 First Nation's Territories!

received over 1031 pages of documents that chronicle a wide variety of
media stories regarding the erosion of the NEB's powers along with data
showing that the NEB was following my work on Twitter and Slideshare.
The total data was well over 2000 pages but hundreds of pages were
completely redacted using section 21, Section 23 and section 68 of the
Access to Information Act. Other pages were simply copies. They sent it
all on a single disk in a single file that is 218MB. Too large to
email, too large to post on-line so I posted it in a Dropbox account

With increased water flow how many manual shut of valves will be underwater when ruptures happen? <br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1416948146415_17666" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_10408" dir="ltr">I stopped the flow of Line 9 at the hearings because I said every river at risk of flood, ice jams or erosion requires two valves. If you don' t shut it from both sides the other side is going to leak! Only 6 shut off valves are 1km away from both sides of a river on Line 9. We've got to do better than this.<br></div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_10363" dir="ltr"><br></div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_9778" dir="ltr">If anyone requires my assistance please do not hesitate to call or email me. <br></div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_9780" dir="ltr"><br></div></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_9784">Thank you kindly for your time.</div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_9786"><br></div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_9785" dir="ltr">Yours in good faith and honesty, <br></div></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style="">Louisette Lanteigne</div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style="">700 Star Flower Ave.</div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style="">Waterloo ON.</div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_9782">N2V 2L2</div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416947652770_9791">519-885-7619<br></div></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div><div class="yiv0674176239" dir="ltr" id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416785827850_2355" style=""><br></div><div id="yiv0674176239yui_3_16_0_1_1416939434177_3130" class="yiv0674176239" style=""><br class="yiv0674176239" style=""></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></body></html>
