I’ve been reading about this Northern Gateway Pipeline project for years,
Opposition organized groups have delayed it forever, it appears,
They have this religious zeal for their agenda, they want displayed,
Are they right or wrong and should the government be swayed?
Organized groups of lawyers lined up in courtrooms making demands,
They say that the First Nations crowds are the real owners of these lands,
As they make legal applications and challenges for more delays,
Which side are we on here and can they persuade?
What does this really mean and what will or could or can change?
Could these events show that our Canada is really deranged?
Who runs this land - the government or the activist groups?
As we wait for a legal decision and then go “whoops”
