Violence has erupted at a Coastal GasLink pipeline work site in Northern B.C., leaving workers shaken and millions of dollars in damage.

Very early Thursday, just after midnight, Coastal GasLink security called RCMP for help, reporting it was under attack by about 20 people, some wielding axes.

RCMP Chief Supt. Warren Brown, commander for the north district, called the attack a “calculated and organized violent attack that left its victims shaken and a multi-million dollar path of destruction.”

    Lmao you might be right but I gotta admit the idea of the RCMP doing millions in damage to CGL property is pretty funny.

      Could be classic "would be a shame if those wacky natives did anything to your pipeline" gangster shit, but I agree. It seems a bit over the top for that.
