  Good for the Heiltsuk students.
  
  There are over 80% of the BC citizens, supporting the F.N. to keep the atrocities of the Enbridge pipeline and the dirty tar tankers, out of our province.
  
  Not even once have I heard, Harper nor anyone of them trying to force the pipeline through, say one word about the F.N. food sources being under threat.
  
  It's the same as the Appawapiskat F.N. people. They should sue Harper, for crimes against humanity.
  
  Harper has not one concern for the F.N. His negligence is obvious. Harper has no right, to cross over F.N. rivers, streams and lands. It's bad enough, the Salmon are being killed off, by filthy diseased fish farms. The F.N. are entitled to their, fishing spots and their hunting grounds. They are entitled, to have safe clean drinking water.
  
  I can think of the perfect name to call Harper...it's just not printable.

  Just watched the National video. The anchorman claims in the first sentence that it was the protestors who delayed the hearings when in actual fact it was a decision made by the panel members.
  
  Unable to see any threatening people in the video at all. I believe what the panel members are afraid of is their own shadows, or perhaps their massive egos which will not permit them to tolerate any challenging questions or dissent.
  
  So they have to blame someone for their unsuccessful endeavour. After all, they cannot be held responsible for anything….. correct?
