The following from the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency. 2 days after Enbridge filed, the Haisla and Gitga'at Nations hosted their Feast of the Nations at Kitamaat Village, a fantastic & very well-attended feast. All First Nations of north western BC made statements of solidarity to stand together against this project, and they are supported by a growing number of well-organized ENGOs and concerned northern BC, BC & Canadian residents.
Enbridge, you are in for an epic fight, and Sea to Sands will be there as part of this growing network of opposition.
NO MEANS NO!

May 27, 2010 - Northern Gateway Pipeline Project - Joint Review Panel Begins Assessment of Recently Filed Northern Gateway Pipeline Application
With today's filing of the Northern Gateway Pipeline Project application, the Joint Review Panel (the Panel) will begin its assessment of the application.
The Panel will review the proposed project under both the National Energy Board Act and the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act. It will assess the application according to the Joint Review Panel Agreement and Terms of Reference.
The Panel will first review the application to determine if it contains sufficient information to initiate the joint review process and issue a Hearing Order. The Hearing Order will outline the various ways people can participate in the review process, deadlines for key steps of the process and a draft List of Issues which will be considered for the project. Information sessions and panel sessions will be held in communities close to the proposed project. All of these sessions will be public and advertised in local media. A complete schedule will be posted on the National Energy Board's website and the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency's website.
