I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but there really should have been more uproar back when they were having public meetings in the fall.
There is virtually NO chance of it going undersea. You'll be lucky to get them to at least not put it straight through the park.
It's pretty hard to argue against a pipeline when people in towns are CALLING for natural gas hookups in their home. How do you think those will be delivered? Osmosis?
People should be up in arms in the fact that all this gas is going underneath them but AWAY from the province. Natural gas is FAR cheaper than oil and hydro, and a small province like NB could save a fortune. Yet the population in most places is just too small.
Add to that the provinces decision to cut out the middle layer of distributors and you have yet another boondoggle. There are already gas lines going through fredericton and moncton, people WANT them. But the province is getting screwed by letting the companies walk all over them. NB is probably the first province to not benefit from natural resources passing right through it. The number I heard was that between Nova Scotia and New Brunswick it brings in maybe 25 million. That wouldn't even cover the damage from ONE leak.
But I suppose what else can you expect from government.
This Pipeline is 30inches in diameter not 2 inches.Fredericton doesn't have a 30 inch line running through it.This pipeline is huge.
This pipeline is also for the sole pupose of the US markets.The people on this blog are informed except you I guess.This is not an Enbridge line.This is a huge pipeline
Rothesay and the Quispamsis Area are more than just OK. It's Heaven to live out here, compared to the so-called, Stinky, Smelly, Polluted City of Saint John.
The people of Saint John should just get used to the realistic idea, all Saint John is good for, is for the laying down of Fuel Pipelines. East Saint John always has had Fuel Pipelines in that area.
Rockwood Park can't even provide proper Security for the Camp Ground in the Summer Time. There have been numerous Newspaper Stories about tourists having their Tents and Trailers broken into, during the Tourist Season.
So, the logical thing to do is close it down. And how can you call it a Camp Ground with no grassy fields, and only Crushed Gravel on the Ground.
Years back, there was a Water Slide there, the people didn't support it, and it Died. Of course then again, who want's to use a Water Slide in the FOG !
You just wait and see, It's a done deal that the Pipeline will be going through the Park.
And there's no group around here that can keep the Irvings, and their Gas Business Counterparts from putting it where they want to.
Better in Saint John however, than out here. The only Culture there is in Saint John, is the Culture we out this way, bring into the City.
