Dear Editor:
Re: City hits pipeline legal roadblock, Burnaby NOW, Dec. 17.
As the news continues to unfold, it appears only Mayor Corrigan and his minions feel they have a case against Kinder Morgan conducting its investigation.
Personally, I hope someone files a request for information with the City and asks them how much this has already cost the Burnaby taxpayers for legal fees, RCMP overtime, what our liability is to Kinder Morgan for their costs, how many city employees have been taken from their work to deal with the matter (and the cost for them), plus how much an appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada is going to cost.
It's easy for tenured SFU professors to rant and outsiders to protest, but the taxpayers of Burnaby are being left holding the bag that has to be in the millions already.
