The chief of the Wolastoq Grand Council in New Brunswick says the proposed Energy East pipeline project is too risky and the council will oppose it. Grand Chief Ron Tremblay says the council has called a news conference for Monday where clanmothers and other members of the council will discuss their responsibility to protect their non-ceded homeland. (The Grand Council claims indigenous title over the lands and waters of the entire St. John River watershed between the St. Lawrence River and the Bay of Fundy. While Tremblay says they will oppose the pipeline, it's too early to say how they might do that.)
