“These decisions should not ever be tied to a corporate construction schedule, such as Coastal Gas Link.
“There needs to be time and space set aside for a very thorough adjudication of the Common Law and the Wet'suwet'en Law and all aspects and dimensions of this very complicated issue.
“We have to just stop relying on these low level Interlocutory Injunctions and sending in the RCMP as if somehow they represent the corporate 7th Cavalry. It’s just absolutely reckless and irresponsible, and may cause serious injury or loss of life.”
—Grand Chief Stewart Phillip
