Please consider this when thinking about the proposed Northern Gateway Pipeline : Given Enbridges abhorrent safety record—an average of 73 hydrocarbon spills per year—the enormous risks associated with the project should come as little surprise. Twin pipelines must bore through land-slide prone mountains, cross six major watersheds and 1,210 tributaries, pass through the Great Bear Rainforest and load oil into super-tankers that will navigate the Hecate Straight—the fourth most dangerous waterway in the world, according to Environment Canada. The route, Northern Gateway’s website proudly explains, spans 1,177 “rational and respectful kilometers.”
