@4R4XY7N4yrs4Y
I do not support it as a necessary act, but as an interesting idea. It is not essential to the succession of our nation, and if aboriginal groups do not support it, there is cultural interference happening. I am not supporting an act with the potential to create personal conflict.
@9RTLWCPIndependent8mos8MO
I would like to see us gradually move away and transition away from fossil fuel, but as long as we limit the environmental damage, sure. And as long as, aboriginals, provinces, and citizens agree to the project. I understand the social and economic benefits, but if we're going to use pipelines, I would much prefer LNG than oil.
@9QZCYDN9mos9MO
No. It might have some benefits but the environment is being destroyed and the local people are mostly against it. Additionally the company doesn't have the greatest history.
@9LN42DV12mos12MO
Yes, assuming all measures can be taken to ensure reduced impact on the environment and affected communities.
@9K6HR9K1yr1Y
No, This hurts the multiple years of our national human societal race that came from more important backgrounds than worthless whole whites, also yeah aboriginals should have something to decide as such as us as well.
@9HW52K81yr1Y
Yes, as long as it provides serious environmental risks, especially to those in Aboriginal communities
@9H5Z3PK1yr1Y
I do support it but at the same time I don't, i'm in the middle. I say this because this is a good idea but what if it breaks or leaks and there is a lot of money going into it.
@B2F9RNN3mos3MO
I agree with the pipeline project; however, they must incorporate Indigenous knowledge and respect the Indigenous land they are crossing.
yes, according to me it is very helpful project for society as it provides many benefits to society.
Yes, this is a well planned project that will provide significant social and economic benefits to the region, but until all or most of the Aboriginal bands this project affects agree to it. Or just for provinces that want or need the pipeline
@8VTFCPG4yrs4Y
Yes, if the money gained is invested into First Nation communities and renewable energy
@8VRFTSW4yrs4Y
Middle not informed enough to make a decision
@8VR5D8F4yrs4Y
No, the development will cause environmental damage.
@8VN4GLXNew Democratic4yrs4Y
I don't have enough knowledge about it.
@8VKD4HP4yrs4Y
As long as the government doesn't pay for the infrastructure
@8VK27KS4yrs4Y
No, we should invest in renewable R&D or infrastructure rather than a sunset industry
@8VHNSCT4yrs4Y
I’m unaware of it and would rather not comment on something I’m not informed in
@8VGPZH54yrs4Y
not well enough informed
Yes but only if Endbridge Funds fresh drinking water to the First Nation communities.
@8V5S6SL4yrs4Y
I support no new pipelines or any dependance on fossil fuels
@8V5R6454yrs4Y
Don’t know enough about the issue
@8TZ48GP4yrs4Y
@8TRPMHX4yrs4Y
I am unsure at this moment/ don’t have enough information to formulate an opinion
@8TLWKBH4yrs4Y
No. The project's environmental assessment was incomplete!
@8TKFPRH4yrs4Y
No, and no further investments should be made into pipeline projects.
@8SXM7TV4yrs4Y
Yes and invest more in transportation research
@8SHRW854yrs4Y
Why do a pipeline at all? We could benefit more financially in the long run from invest in sustainable energy.
@8SB6J954yrs4Y
Don’t know enough about it
@8S2ZZRM4yrs4Y
Yes, but direct it away from Aboriginal territory
Do it or don’t. This back and forth is a waste of money. Either get it done, because we still use fossil fuels or abandon it entirely towards a 100% shift to natural resources.
@8R2ZVZ24yrs4Y
No the project should not occur. As well, the government should pay miners to perform labor involving renewable energy sources instead.
@8R23V354yrs4Y
No - I'm tired of subsidizing dying industries, subsidize transition for energy companies to renewables
@8QZTFS34yrs4Y
We should be useing green energy to end our dependency on foreign fuel first with the goal of transitioning our energy to green
@8QPX6WJ4yrs4Y
All pipelines should be shuttered and any petroleum transport should be done be rail.
@8PPLF2TNew Democratic4yrs4Y
Canadian Oil, should be processed in Canada and made of use to Canadians. - End reliance on Imported Oil . - If we have so much to give away to China.. then that means we have enough to last us eternity. Our Resources should employ and support our lives.
@8PJMGYM4yrs4Y
No, but I understand the economic benefits and don't mind it being constructed if provinces and the US and Canada agree to it. Not to mention if natives and citizens consent to the construction on their private property
@8NX7R6B4yrs4Y
It isn’t a problem with me
@92JJNYM3yrs3Y
Yes, but nationalize the energy sector and redistribute profits as dividends to all Canadian citizens. Canadian resources belong to all Canadians, not multinational corporations.
@9CN4DVX2yrs2Y
I'm unsure of what that is.
@9CMHR5C2yrs2Y
No, I do not support natural gas usage
@9BJMH6D2yrs2Y
I am uneducated on the subject
@9B4879N2yrs2Y
I don't really know how to answer this
@9B452MM2yrs2Y
No, it's bad for the people who live there
@99JLRTS2yrs2Y
As long as it's not infringing on other people's territory, then yes.
@98PQTLX2yrs2Y
Yes because it helps the economy and created more jobs
@97T4JZCConservative2yrs2Y
Yes, if first nations are consulted first, and we go for LNG pipelines instead for social and economic benefits
@97BRLR22yrs2Y
don't quite know about it.
@93X23323yrs3Y
Depends on if it becomes sustainable and safe for all parties concerned
@9388XWJ3yrs3Y
as long as they are held acountable to the comunities that are most effected
@92C6BJV3yrs3Y
Not a governmental concern.
@9235Q2J3yrs3Y
As long as it does not affect old growth forests
@8ZRBY423yrs3Y
Conflicted on this issue
@8ZKWRYP3yrs3Y
The premise should seek the opinions of more residents.
@8Y3NCLY3yrs3Y
Yes as long as the company is held accountable to the communities their harming the most
@8XZYC7Y3yrs3Y
I would say Yes as long as the communities that are most harmed have the most say in weather to keep the pipeline project going. Enbridge has a poor history and they need to be held accountable to their actions if they are to improve as a company
@8V8LQD4New Democratic4yrs4Y
I agree that they need to fix old pipes to ensure leaks don’t happy but I don’t believe they need to create more paths with the pipes.
@8SHNHYV4yrs4Y
No, Enbridge has a poor history of pipeline installations, choose a different company instead.
@8PWLBMQ4yrs4Y
Yes but as a short term project until viable clean energy can be relied upon.
Yes and should have happened a long time ago
@9M3QXSH11mos11MO
I agree that "not until all the Aboriginal bands agrees to this project" but please STOP like seriously STOP using the terms aBoRiGiNaL because they ARE original to this land and only 5% of people in Canada in 2021 are Indigenous!!!
