Enbridge Video Stunningly Misleading

authordefault

For compulsive watchers of Enbridge Inc., the spill-crazy pipeline company that wants to pipe tar sands crude to the Canadian West Coast – or just for students of the barefaced lie – this video can’t beย beaten.

It purports to show the pipeline route, including an open sea exodus where tankers will pass from the proposed Kitimat, British Columbia oilย port.

But as this video documents, the Enbridge auteurs airbrushed out 1,000 square kilometres of islands and rocks within the exitย channel.

Given the criticism, the company has added a note saying, โ€œThe animation is for illustrative purposes only. It is meant to be broadly representational, not toย scale.โ€

Broadly representing a completely falseย image.
