and now a word from the scumbags at The Fraser Institute : While some might praise the idealism and passion of the anti-oil protesters on Burnaby Mountain, what they deserve real credit for is their almost unlimited capacity for hubris and hypocrisy. Hubris for claiming to have any authority to speak for the majority of citizens who accept that fossil fuels are a necessary part of life. And hypocrisy for their own consumption of fossil fuels by pitching tents made from oil-based synthetic fabrics, arriving in vehicles powered by oil and using tools made from steel almost certainly forged with coal. And who are these protesters, so many of whom are free in the middle of the day while the majority of regular people are at work, generating taxes through their industry that prop up the lifestyles of so many of the people getting in the way of a legal activity on Burnaby Mountain. That includes clever university professors and students who don’t seem to understand that their high salaries and education can only be supplied by taxation on industry. Then there is the defiance in the face of a court order. What do we want in Canada — the rule of law or mob rule? History shows again and again why the former leads to wealth while the latter leads to chaos. Police! Do your jobs! #BurnabyMountain #KinderMorgan #ThisTownNeedsaNewspaper
