When in the near future, the Enbridge Line 9 pipeline spills bitumen from Alberta's oilsands into the Grand River, we'll tell our children we agreed to reverse the flow of a 37-year-old pipeline because, well, it was good for the economy.

We won't mention that it didn't create any long-lasting jobs for Waterloo Region.

We won't mention that the Grand River is the watershed from which local farms draw water to cultivate the food we eat.
