A local politician once told me that 1 hard copy letter to the government is seen as the voice of 1000 citizens.
It is also considered with more weight than email.
Please consider sending some hard copy No Enbridge letters to the BC Government (& Ottawa) via snail mail as soon as possible!
Even though the federal government has approved the Northern Gateway Pipeline project proposed by Enbridge, the B.C. government has the power to grant or deny some of the permits needed for its construction.

Combining info from 2 public petition letters, I’ve made a basic No Enbridge letter (with premier/ministers’ names & addresses included) you can download as a starting point!
Guidelines:
1) Alter the letter with some of your own sentiments and wording to ensure it is received as a personal letter rather than a form letter.
2) Copy your edited text to all 6 letters: to the BC Premier, Prime Minister, 2 provincial Ministers and 2 federal Ministers.
3) No postage needed when mailing to the federal government in Ottawa (but postage is needed for provincial)
