Trudeau was a fool to think any kind of dialogue with these bunch of assholes would actually accomplish anything. Was quite clear that force was the only thing that would work.
Trudeau did nothing for as long as possible as he did not want tough action such as enforcing the rule of law to impact the chance of getting a temporary seat on the UN security council.
When it comes down to brass tacks the 5 dissenting wetsuweten hereditary chiefs are a fake first nation.They operate under the Office of the wetsuwetan which is an incorporated company and they are funded by the Tides Foundation.
Will those dissenting wetsuwetan hereditary chiefs get any kind of job building that pipeline?Will they act in any paid administration capacity?The answer to both is NO.So in other words they DONT get to get a piece of the pie everyone else
will be enjoying.So they create their own pie for themselves and become paid activists for the Tides Foundation and in so doing have other first nations jump on the proverbial band wagon and act as unwitting but well meaning dupes.
Every single first nation on that pipeline route is 100% behind the development.It means jobs and prosperity as well as revenue sharing and it will impact every single member of all 20 first nation for generations in a positive way.It has taken 10+ years and it is nothing but positive for ALL first nations involved....it is a HAND UP in full cooperation and consultation with all first nations involved instead of a HAND OUT.
