The Gitgaat First Nation is launching a legal challenge to the Enbridge review panels assessment of the companys tanker and pipeline proposal because the process failed to meet constitutional obligations to First Nations. Read the full press release here: bit.ly/1dPQZTo Arnold Clifton, Chief Councillor for the Gitgaat First Nation: The JRP came to our community and we bared our souls to them. We gave testimony and shared an important feast with them to demonstrate our connection with our territory through food. Clearly they didnt listen to us. Its like they were never here. We owe it to our children to defend our rights, our coastal communities and our way of life from the dangers of oil tanker traffic.
