LNG Canada has met the B.C. government香蕉视频直播檚 standard for proceeding with its liquefied natural gas project and working with Indigenous people along the pipeline route, B.C. Premier John Horgan says.
Horgan commented for the first time Wednesday after RCMP officers moved in to clear a roadblock from a bridge across the Morice River, to give pipeline workers access to the right of way that has been blocked by a dissident group since 2010.
The agreements with all 20 Indigenous communities along the route from the Dawson Creek-area gas fields to Kitimat include hereditary chiefs as well as elected band councils, Horgan said.
The situation remains tense at the site of the protest camp, with RCMP monitoring the road with aircraft and tactical units standing by.
香蕉视频直播淚 would hope they would remain peaceful,香蕉视频直播� Horgan said. 香蕉视频直播淭hey have every right to object, it香蕉视频直播檚 a fundamental principle in Canada and British Columbia. If they香蕉视频直播檙e breaking the law, there are consequences for that, and that香蕉视频直播檚 why 14 people were arrested yesterday.香蕉视频直播�

There were those who were highlighting that. There were those talking about diluted bitumen. There were those talking about eradicating capitalism. There was a whole bunch of discontent on display for Canadians to see.香蕉视频直播�
