I’m just listening to the portion of your podcast dealing with pipelines of BC and I see things a little bit differently. When I look at the Angus Read poll from October 2025 the majority of Canadians supported a Northern pipeline to the BC coast, and even if you look at the proportion of B C residence who were in the poles, they also have major majority supporting northern pipeline. You also indicated that a large number of first nations were opposed to the pipeline project. I think that may be an exaggeration. Clearly the first nations groups as represented by those on the coast may oppose a northern pipeline. However, as with the Transmountain project, where a large majority of the first nations affected by the pipeline actually supported Transmountain. I expect the same would be true of a northern pipeline. So in sum, I think you could accurately say that premier Eby and some coastal first nations would oppose a Northern pipeline but making a more generalized statement that BC voters in general would oppose a northern pipeline is not accurate.

FYI, I very much enjoy your podcasts!
