EDITOR,
Why are Canadian taxpayers paying for Prime Minister Harper and his pack ofministers and senior bureaucrats to travel to B.C. for them to shill for Big Oil? The message has been loud and clear from B.C.: NO to pipelines and by extension also NO to any tar sands expansion. Over 160 First Nations have signed the Save the Fraser Declaration, prohibiting the transport of tar sands crude through their lands and waters. Please respect B.C.'s First Nations and their indigenous rights. There is overwhelming scientific evidence that the tar sands areone of the biggest contributors of climate change in the world. And Harper calls this a nation-building project! Get your head out of the sand, Harper.
