    1. luke shaw ..,it was a different time…they’re dead now…but please feel free to dig up their bones and put them in jail if it makes you feel better

  1. You don’t get to shut down infrastructure and call yourselves ‘peaceful’ protesters. If you want to protest and be REAL leaders who live by example, then quit standing around, put your thinking caps on and get to work creating options for your communities that will eventually make pipelines obsolete. Otherwise stfu and stay out of the way. Acting like brats throwing a tantrum in the middle of a grocery store is not helping.

  2. Law shows no force, law is upholding the country. We have it for a reason. No one should be exempt from violating the law! Weakness is the chiefs who wont co-operate properly.

  3. Imagine spending years and tens of thousands of dollars to become a self important, associate professor of a fake intellectual grievance studies; drug addicts are a lesser burden on society.
