Whitmer orders shut down of Michigan pipeline citing “environmental risks”

05/16/2021 / By Ethan Huff

Almost immediately after it was announced that the Colonial Pipeline had been shut down due to a “hack,” Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer took the opportunity to order the shut down another pipeline that runs through her state, claiming it poses “environmental risks.”

One of the nation’s most vicious dictators, Whitmer proclaimed that the oil and gas pipeline, which is run by Canadian energy company Enbridge, had to shut down on May 12 because, should the pipeline burst, leak, or become damaged, Michiganders might be put at risk.

As of this writing, Enbridge has refused to comply with Whitmer’s unlawful decree, and it is backed by numerous top Canadian officials. The last thing North America needs right now is a worsened energy crisis that leaves them without fuel.

By almost immediately, the author means 6 months before?  In November?

In February the courts ordered mediation.  Earlier this month, Canada’s natural resources minister said the continued operation of the pipeline was “non-negotiable”.

The witch of the north does not have the authority to shut it down. Enbridge has rightfully given her the middle finger.

libertybele:
I'm still convinced she's getting paid to cause as much turmoil as she can.  She's following orders.

Smokin Joe:
It's a smokescreen.

With what's going on in AZ and WI, she's giving people something different to talk about in hopes the election will be forgotten.
