This is the third time in less than a month that a CN train carrying crude has derailed and caught fire near this northern community. Oh yeah, and oil has spilled into the nearby Matagami river and is contaminating the air. "Our community does not feel safe and we are concerned about the effects of smoke inhalation and environmental damage," said one of the biggest opponents to pipelines, the chief of the Matagami First Nation.
Really? Well get your heads out of your ass-s and start getting on the pipeline band wagon because it'll keep happening. The latest safety standards for oil tankers still don't go far enough. It's all so dumb. And not only is it far more dangerous, it costs twice as much to move crude by rail than via pipeline. Duh and duh again!
So dumb.
