When the denizens of Burnaby managed to win a Supreme Court ruling against Kinder Morgen for cutting trees on Burnaby Morgen for a pipeline, they received a letter within a week detailing the company's alternate plan, to route the pipeline through a residential neighbourhood, instead.
One woman commented, "It's like being told you're going to lose a limb, but you get to choose whether it's an arm or a leg."
The Corporation Beast, stung, reared its head back and roared. Its neck snapped forward at lightning speed and snapped its teeth so close that the city could feel the hot stink of its breath, feel flecks of burning spittle spray the town like rain.
They had bought themselves some time.
Lah.
