I am agree with you. Moreover, Irving has 54 properties along the proposed pipeline, this is one of the reasons why Irving wants that Emera gets pipeline built through the city. Anyway, Saint John citizens are not informed about the risks because all english newspapers in the province are owned by Irving and obviously in favour of this pipeline
