The rift that LNG is causing in the Moricetown community and the Wet’suwet’en Nation grew wider when arguments for and against allowing pipeline projects on traditional land collided with force at a community meeting in Moricetown last Thursday.
A heated discussion lasting more than three hours failed to provide any clearcut answers for the Moricetown Band, which was still in discussions over whether to sign three financial benefits agreements at the time of print on Monday.
With millions of dollars in payments pending their support, the band called the meeting at the Moricetown Multiplex to give the community a detailed explanation of the deals being considered.
