Dear Editor
Engineers, almost by definition, draw their determinations from facts rather than the court of public opinion.
So when a group of professional engineers called the Concerned Professional Engineers (CPE) concludes, after lengthy scientific analysis, that there is a 10 per cent chance of an eight-million-litre marine spill in the 50-year life span of the proposed Kinder Morgan TMX pipeline expansion, including a potentially destructive collision with the Second Narrows Bridge, there is cause for serious concern that cannot be easily dismissed.
Check out their conclusions and view the CPE Second Narrows bridge disaster simulation scenario at www.concernedengineers.org.
