Good for him for contacting them! I'm guessing from rereading the Calgary Herald article that Ms Gudic is also going to turn out to be a Spirit Bear defender who didn't recognize the issue when it was presented to her by the Calgary herald as "Gateway".<br /><br />A flimsy excuse to smear the hearings at any rate - just like when Kady and Snuffaluffagus were 'exposed' as being on the Avaaz petition. <br /><br />WEB : OK, you got me this one time! :-x. <br /><br />BY : Good point. <br />Also the Calgary Herald headline reads : <b>Some 'intervenors' have never heard of Gateway</b>, when both the Brazilians, Gudic and Ferraz, clearly do not have intervenor status and only signed up to "Make an Oral Presentation".<br />I've noticed this muddying up of the distinction before - making it sound like all 4522 people have intervenor status.<br />Such a fuss about members of the public - most of whom actually do live along the proposed pipeline route - getting to speak for 10 minutes each. How inconvenient for Enbridge and Steve. Even the US State Dept's Keystone XL public hearings run by K-XL client CardnoEntrix didn't dispute the public's right to be heard. Well, not till near the end anyway.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09811694143714068436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-62012660613811835752012-01-12T13:00:23.793-08:002012-01-12T13:00:23.793-08:00The government and the press must think we are idi...The government and the press must think we are idiots. <br /><br />They are painting this process as if it's the first time NEB and CEAA have ever conducted public hearings. The two agencies know damn well which environmentalist groups are legitimate after having conducted thousands of these joint review panels. <br /><br />They also know damn well who the individual FNs, Tribal Councils, Metis federated groups, and other Aboriginal organizations likely to ask to present a submission are.Beijing Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05579118045254845839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-86238358391121092452012-01-12T12:52:19.523-08:002012-01-12T12:52:19.523-08:00It appears your memory is as sharp as ever, Alison...It appears your memory is as sharp as ever, Alison ;-) . . . .West End Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04899808253017644309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-25736230245376457742012-01-12T10:51:52.228-08:002012-01-12T10:51:52.228-08:00BCL has more on this:
