1/3 Alaska Gas Pipeline Bulldozes Yukon Land Claims?
1/3 Alaska Gas Pipeline Bulldozes Yukon Land Claims?
Questions about TransCanada Pipelines - ExxonMobil deal At the height of the Alaska Gasline Inducement Act, (AGIA) application process in 2008 Alaska governor Palin became concerned about obstacles for the Alaska Gas Pipeline project in Canada and hired a Canadian law firm for advice. Not adequately meeting the demands of 40 or more First Nations in the Canadian, mostly Yukon right of way portion could be fatal to the project was the answer that she received; her own lawyers advised her that the TransCanada Pipelines timeline is unrealistic (all according to the Anchorage Daily News). All of a sudden in June 2009 its clear sailing; how come? In December 2008 TransCanada Pipelines did receive the one and only AGIA licence over several competitors. ExxonMobil was not among them but entered the picture in 2009. Prior to ExxonMobile and TransCanada Pipelines Ltd. forming the TransCanada Alaska Co. on June 12, on June 10, 2009 Sarah Palin had concluded talks with ExxonMobil in Dallas, according to the Houston Chronicle. The reasons for and structure of this corporate partnership remain in the dark. The only financial contribution of Exxon that both partners admit to is something in the range between pocket change and zero, it could be an undisclosed portion of $ 150 million (major media reported that Exxon contributes 150 million; there are no corporate or government statements which support any figure that describes Exxon's portion) which would be nominally a contribution of <b>...</b>

2/3 Alaska Gas Pipeline Bulldozes Yukon Land Claims?
One anecdote we know from Exxon is that together with Murphy Oil Inc. in 2007 they launched a challenge under NAFTA chapter 11 investment to overrule NewFoundland and Labrador legislation. Exxon does not recognize a provincial law which requires oil and gas businesses to make a financial contribution to education and research in the province. A wave of similar corporate NAFTA chapter 11 challenges including against environmental legislation, which attempt across the country to overrule provincial legislation by the use of off shore arbitration panels, is a recent development. The Yukon land claims legislation recognizes the original Foothills Pipelines (still part of TransCanada Pipelines) right of way in the Yukon but does not limit rewards, also the White River and Kaska First Nations dont have agreements. The Yukon First Nations deserve assurance that their rights have not been undermined by negotiations of the Fentie government with the Alaska government and that land claims will not be overruled by a NAFTA chapter 11 challenge or the threat thereof. The possibility of this scenario has been predicted by Tony Pennikett in his book Reconciliation. So concerned was he about his findings that he wrote a letter to then Prime Minister Jean Chretien about this concern; the letter is quoted in the book. Pennikett is a former NDP Yukon Premier who is now a leading land claims consultant for indigenous peoples worldwide. This is potentially the meaning of the TransCanada Exxon <b>...</b>

3/3 Alaska Gas Pipeline Bulldozes Yukon Land Claims?
There is more. Not only may lawful government be in danger, Yukon businesses and trades people who want pipeline construction and maintenance contracts can loose their shirt if the project planning is bungled. It may get get bogged down under Shakespeare like plots and under political pressure of US energy security expectations to rush the planning. The 1985 completed Norman Wells oil pipeline can teach a lesson, it has problems with unstable permafrost situations. TransCanadas AGIA application in its public part with two or three sentences refers to their standard expertise in this regard. Major climate research bodies predict an unprecedented, ongoing reduction of permafrost over the projected construction and operating period reaching well into the second half of the century. The permafrost aspect has always been a sensitive detail, both for above and underground pipeline design. And here we have massive changes coming and they are not being addressed. The potential is there for emergencies, for economic failure, which are further aggravated by the dangers of sour gas content. This too needs clarification, not just by experienced but by independent experts. They can be found, but so far that has not happened.

The Alaska Pipeline - Part 1
Trans-Alaska Pipeline Considered by many to be one of the great engineering and construction feats in recent history, the Trans- Alaska Pipeline was a crowning achievement for Baker during the late 1960's and into 1977, when the project became operational. Upon completion, the project was the largest privately funded venture in humankind's history, requiring $7.7 billion to design and build. The 48-inch oil pipeline was designed to bring two million barrels of crude from Prudhoe Bay, on Alaska's North Slope, 789 miles south to the port of Valdez, where it will continue to do so, well into the 21st century. Between 1969 and startup of the project, Baker personnel had put nearly 2.5 million manhours in engineering civil, structural, and transportation related infrastructure for the project, including mile-by-mile pipeline design, north of the Yukon.

Nahanni History - Poole Field - Part 1.mov
Nahanni History - Poole Field - Part 1.mov
For fifty years, Poole Field provided the Nahanni region with leadership, supplies, and tall tales. The son of an English aristocrat and the Metis daughter of a HBCo. factor, Poole had grown up hearing John Beads and Robert Cambell talk of their pioneering explorations of western Canada and the Yukon Territories. When he turned sixteen, he joined the NWMP, and in 1898 traveled with a large consignment of dogs for the Yukon. After two years as a Special Constable there, he took his discharge to explore the gold fields of Nome and Fairbanks, then returned to the Yukon to established himself as a trader at Ross River. There he married a Dene chief's daughter and traveled frequently with them across the Mackenzie Mtns. to the Great Bear Lake. By 1920, he established trading posts on the NWT side at Trout Lake and Nahanni Butte and gave support there to the Dene, the RCMP, gold prospectors, and travelers. In the 1940's he helped the US Army with the CANOL pipeline project and in 1944 moved to Aklavik to seek gold on the Firth River. Ill with cancer, he died in 1948 and was buried without a marker in Vancouver. Fifty years later, with the involvement of family and friends, the RCMP officially dedicated the placement of a bronze marker on his grave, and his life was celebrated with a reception. Both events were filmed by the Don Wilder, the cinematographer of "Nahanni," the famous Albert Faille NFBC short. This YouTube posting was provided by Nahanni historian Norman Kagan, and <b>...</b>
