Pipeline supporter did not deal with main issues

(Prime Minister Stephen) Harper has gutted the environmental review process

Editor, The Times:

John Hunter's letter (“Pipeline supporter takes critic to task” in the Aug. 13 issue of the Times) against Dennis Peacock's does not deal with the main issues of pipelines.

(Prime Minister Stephen) Harper has gutted the environmental review process. Not allowing cross examination of pipeline companies at NEB (National Energy Board) hearings and limiting presentations is a violation of due process.

The NDP want to build refineries in Canada to create jobs. Harper wants to ship our raw resources out of the country – without proper environmental protection.

How's that going for you Harper and Cathy McLeod? I haven't seen one project get off the ground!
