Words, Words, Words

And, I suspect empty ones at that as energy giant Enbridge Inc. denies any role in the Harper government's cancellation of a grant from the Gordon and Betty Foundation to help fund public-private consultations into the economic use of the waters off British Columbia’s north coast.

This cancellation occurred, by the way, after vigorous lobbying by Enbridge against the grant, administered by Tides Canada, which the energy entity characterized as opposed [to] the Northern Gateway project and a potential 'hijacker' of the consultation process.

The Harper regime influenced by corporate interests? Surely not.
