   Me, a quarrelsome little bugger? No way, Madame -- or Mademoiselle.   
   As Alan stated, I can read. And twice I've read under your signature   
   that the Enbridge pipeline was to end in Burnaby. I have not read, at   
   least not yet, that the Kinder Morgan pipeline would in your mind end   
   up in Kitimat, but, who knows, this could happen. Now, this time, I   
   read that "This is how [Harper Government wanting to turn Granville   
   Island over to Port Metro Vancouver and CP Rail wanting to have the   
   Arbutus Corridor rail lines 'cleaned up'] he [Monsieur Harper] plans   
   to do it [getting Alberta oil to the West Coast]. Yep, I can read...   
   And do you know what? I live in the North-East corner of Burnaby, not   
   far from Burnaby Mountain and the Lougheed Mall and I also happen to   
   kayak towards the Eastern end of Burrard Inlet and Indian Arm, passing   
   often by the Westridge Terminal -- and the McBarge, if you know what   
   it is [was the floating McDonalds' restaurant at Expo 86] and where it   
   is anchored [on the South side of the Burrard Inlet between the   
   Westbridge Terminal and the Chevron Refinery].   
   Now, next time you mention the pipelines, check your facts, Madame or   
   Mademoiselle.
