I agree, Rhonda. But there is no property involved yet. No one has identified what will be built or where. No one has submitted a proposal yet.

Please read the MOU. No one has proposed to build or pay for a pipeline yet, and BC and Indigenous people's must be part of the process.

Pierre Poilievre is a child. Read this. The Conservatives made a motion Thursday to replace the Bloc Quebecois motion with theirs, because Pierre is petty and stupid. So of course the Conservative motion was voted down. Pierre needs to be voted out.

Text reading: Blow Leader Yves-Fancois Blanchet moved the initial amendment Wednesday saying the House should reject the budget because it didn't meet enough of his party's demands. The sub amendment [by the Conservatives] proposed to remove the Bloc's wording and instead suggested the House should condemn the budget because it didn't match Conservative expectations. The Bloc voted against the Conservatives wording as a result.
