Whose land is this?

Dear Editor: Open letter to Peter Julian, MP, Burnaby-New Westminster. Sir, would you please confirm or otherwise, that according to the National Energy Board in its ruling Aug.

Dear Editor:
Open letter to Peter Julian, MP, Burnaby-New Westminster.
Sir, would you please confirm or otherwise, that according to the National Energy Board in its ruling Aug. 22 that the National Energy Board Act gives pipeline companies like Kinder Morgan the power to enter and conduct surveys and tests on any Crown land or private land that lies on their intended pipeline routes (Burnaby NOW, Aug. 22).
I guess we can no longer sing “This land is your land, this land is my land.” We need to add “From Burnaby Mountain to municipal parkland, do they still belong to me?”
So please, sir, check out that wording of the National Energy Board before our premier gives the rest of our province away.
Betty Griffin, Burnaby
