I also understand they got FN approval before starting any processes. The only opposition was another group of FN that was also trying to build a pipeline. i believe they are on the same page now.
The brilliance in the plan is that if you put the agreements in place before announcing a plan, you don't allow the tree huggers and economic terrorist groups like the Tides foundation to step in and start paying FN to oppose. They are a step ahead.
