“We intend to fight this expansion….Enbridge is planning to reverse other pipelines to make this extra oil flow to the East Coast and Gulf of Mexico to export. So it is time to fight this in MN folks!!!! We need the tribes, tribal members, concerned citizens, and the land owners to stand up and lets fight this. Share and get the word out.” Marty Cobenais, Indigenous Environmental Network.
