Steven Guilbeault is co-founder and president of Equiterre, a Quebec-based social and environmental solutions non-profit supporting communities opposed to the expansion of the oilsands and construction of the Energy East pipeline.
I recently attended a luncheon at the Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal (BTMM; Quebec: CCMM), and the speaker was none other than Sophie Brochu, President and CEO of Gaz Métro.
According to Ms. Brochu and contrary to what TransCanada is trying to sell us, the Energy East project, far from being beneficial to Quebec, will have serious economic impacts on top of its enviornmental effects.
