We spent this morning re-reading the printed interview between reporters from the Times of Northwest Indiana and Enbridge spokesperson Jennifer Smith. (What a great service the Times did by publishing this!). The more we read, the more worked up we got. So we’ve decided we’re going to have to devote some serious time and attention to that intriguing, maddening document. So stay tuned for a new series. In the meantime, you might want to read it for yourself.
We’re also looking forward to the next installment of Enbridge’s ad— they’ve promised four more! You can bet that we’ll be ready to point out any and all misinformation, dissembling, and rheotrical sleights-of-hand. We’ve also decided we’re going to write directly to Mark Sitek (whose name appears on the “letter”). We’ll post that here as well once we’ve sent it.
From Canada this week came this intriguing opinion piece on Enbridge’s corporate character. It pretty much hits the nail on the head– in fact, it pretty much arrives at the same conclusion and advances the same thesis we offered some weeks back.
Lastly this morning: keep in mind that the POLAR lawsuit hearing in federal court is tomorrow. Please consider attending to show your support for the effort to make Enbridge do things right.
Enbridge has now gone to the air waves to get their word out. WITL 100.7 in Lansing has
an ad about Enbridge. I didn’t hear it all, but twice today, I heard the ending about them ‘being good neighbors for 40 years’. Disgusting.
