Clark is acting is desperate (she stayed silent on the issue for months, and then came out a few days ago screaming), but there is obviously leeway. Again, as I said, there is too much to lose for Clark to not accept the pipeline eventually.
Seriously, Clark only came to a decision a week ago, put out some outrageous demands that have been sensationalized by the media, and you want to shut the door? That's laughable, to be honest, and I don't mean to be rude, but come on. That's a knee-jerk reaction at best.

The BC government is 100% irrelevant when it comes to the Northern Gateway. They can't sway the bands.
I agree, it is pointless.
