I completely agree with this except everyone is still waiting for him to articulate a coherent message that isn't "Oil executives are slimy liars out to doom our Mother Earth to feed their insatiable lust for money". It's not worthy of a response.
I guess there's something vaguely stated about the treatment of first nations during this process and "not honouring treaties", but there are no specifics and the response is pretty easily made: First Nations are not a monolithic entity with a single unified set of priorities, and to use them as the bulwark for your agenda is exploitative. The Journal article posted earlier is an appendix to this response - it ain't that simple.
