barricades to banner drops to peaceful protests, the Canadian colonial governmentpersists in moving forward with the Coastal GasLink project. Its response hasalways been violence and repression. Faced with this situation, people havedecided to take action by increasing the means of pressure by one iota. A mob ofaround 20 attacked the Coastal GasLink site near Houston in northern BritishColumbia leaving behind millions in damage. Coastal GasLink workers became veryscared and security guards were quickly overwhelmed, leading them to seek policeassistance.
