Save the toad

[fcr]

Heard a good one today. There is a crew rebuilding three miles of grid road that borders our land. Was talking to the foreman today and he told me the enviromental crew was out and found a toad in a bordering slough. Now they have to erect a solid fence along all the sloughs so that a toad cant jump out and get run over.And there is over a dozen sloughs on this stretch.Its funny but sad.

This is one of the reasons trans mountain pipeline is so far over budget. They literally were relocating anthills. What a great business to be in.

Excellent article but the price of the a TransMountain expansion has now ballooned to over $30 billion, government incompetence at its finest!

Will they be moving the mosquitoes too so that the toads will still have their food supply

anything Gov, especially Libtard is utter insanity

Sounds like a good way to segregate populations.

Similar to wind projects where they won’t place them on native prairie due to impacting native flora and fauna. So farmers break the land, and voila! Wind turbines.

That toad needs a GPS tracker or maybe hire a few people to keep tabs on it before a hawk scoops it up.

But we should definitely put politicians in charge of our power grid, that will for sure result in cheaper more reliable electricity.

I wonder how many millions of acres have been destroyed forever for the big cities in which most of these environmentalists live ? I bet the number is massive .

JT will see that as a good investment.
Went from $7 billion to $30 billion.
Not finished yet.
Personally will be surprised if it ever is.
He is spending the taxpayers money to prove you can't build major resource projects in Canada.

This strip mine would’ve cut through the heart of crucial habitat for greater sage grouse and other species – all in service of producing a pesticide that is itself pushing our most endangered wildlife closer to extinction

Just latest method to shut down development by enviro's . Tying to trees and road blocks very time consuming better to get the developers to do the work load and less dangerous !!!! They may be nuts but there not stupid. Getting oil patch wages to catch frogs I would have been a MILLIONARE by the time I was 10.
