Canada seems to be struggling with what they want to call domestic terrorism. Maybe they just didn't want it to sway the elections, but still, stolen explosives, detonation near natural gas pipeline collection system, very liberal immigration policy to the north of our great unprotected boarder don't make me feel real comfortable.

How on earth anyone could declare this was not terrorism at this early stage is beyond me.

Ecoterrorism isn't, of course.

We had a domestic act of terrorism several years ago, a nutjob took a .338 rifle and managed to pierce the Alaska Pipeline, under pressure it spewed I think over 100,000 gallons of oil before it was found and plugged.

For those that are cartridge illiterate its a round that is highly favored here in Alaska, it is heavier and packs more punch than a 30-06 which most people consider a heavy round, I have a Ruger .338 myself and I handload my ammunition.

ARTICLE SNIPPET from post no. 1:

"Police would not comment on whether the blast had any connection to the recent theft of a huge cache of dynamite from a work site in nearby Chetwynd in July."

Well hells bells, then, call it eco-sabotage instead for crying out loud and get on with the rounding up of all freaks, hippies, granola-eaters, birkenstock-wearers, and swarthy, shifty-eyed foreigners like yesterday already!!

Sour gas is a form of natural gas that contains hydrogen sulphide, a toxic substance

That's a mild understatement. It'll killya dead in a heartbeat. Having it spewing under pressure would be a monsters dream.

Yes, that’s a bigger hole than would be likely from young men playing with illegal devices and not trying to harm anything. I don’t have enough specific info on the exact distance from the line and type of signature (the hole, any parts, etc.) to know more. It is only apparent that the attempted sabotage (if that’s what it was) was not done by anyone with training for that. ...wanna-be terrorist or terrorists, IMO.
