Counter-protesters tore down a barricade Wednesday in front of Canadian National (CN) railway tracks near Edmonton, Alberta, after environmental activists erected it.
The activists who blocked the tracks are opposed to the Coastal GasLink pipeline in British Columbia. But the blockade was not up for long as another group soon had the barrier down and in the back of a truck.
Environmentalists have brought railway traffic to a standstill now for two weeks across Canada, bringing the threat of food and fuel shortages closer every day.
The activists behind the protest are claiming to represent the interests of the Wet’suwet’en First Nation in British Columbia. But representatives from the group demanded Thursday that the protesters cease and desist, saying the pipeline will bring economic benefits to the Wet’suwet’en people and the project is “none of their business.”

Fine, continue transporting by rail and let it blow up.
I thought the environmentalists didn’t like walls.
Some ‘entities’ are just “TFS”! Too f’n stoopid.
Where is Sunny Ways? Surfing in Costa Rica again?
...And the ongoing efforts to keep Alberta’s oil and gas landlocked and in the ground continue unabated.
I was hoping it wouldn’t be the case, but I’ve now come to the conclusion that the ‘protesters’ are likely to resort to violence before this winds up getting resolved. It’s going to be Ipperwash all over again, where the natives began firing on the OPP, and ultimately, several people on both sides got shot.
Sounds about as silly as what's devolved in H''a''''w''a''''i'''i'''''''''''
Leftist scum.
Don’t you just hate it when people that Marxists are claiming to help tell the Marxists to **** off!
on Kitsap we have the S’Klallam.

Really? Who says they are ‘environmentalists’? For that matter, what is an environmentalist? How does one go about being and proving they are an environmentalist? Is there some certification process to get this title?
Vivian Krause is an independent researcher who has done incredible work for a few decades exposing who these people are... both the ‘envirowackos’ as well as the ‘natives’. A fellow named Richard Mills put this summary together concerning how these people are funded and a lot of it is based on Krause’s work. It’s a shocking bit of insight that the average Canadian would be go wild about if they had a clue about what was really going on. https://aheadoftheherd.com/Newsletter/2018/Following-the-big-US-money-behind-Canadian-pipeline-protests.pdf
