Dear Editor
Re: Pipeline plan has a fatal flaw, Opinion, Burnaby NOW, Nov. 27.
I read with interest your guest editorial by Mike Priaro. While I appreciate he provides a unique perspective from his position in Alberta, he is creating unnecessary confusion here in B.C.
Let me be clear – the proposal before Tsawwassen First Nation members is only regarding a concept for an LNG facility. We are not now considering, nor as long as we are the elected chief and executive council of the TFN would we ever consider, using Tsawwassen lands as a terminus for the Kinder Morgan pipeline. In fact, we have publicly indicated our opposition to the project and we are an active intervenor in the current NEB process.
It is up to the members to determine if LNG is something they would like to see on our lands. I look forward to their decision on Dec. 16.
Chief Bryce Williams, on behalf of the executive council of Tsawwassen First Nation
