I’m pretty sure the courts have been pretty explicit that treating Consultation as nothing more than a process to get through is evidence of bad faith and will get your project quashed.

How could you not have a deadline? Just let consultation go on forever?
-
They will be over when they are over. If I told you I was here to sincerely listen and fix issues, but it had to be done by 2pm, would that be sincere consultation? The court ruled it is not. Putting a deadline would scuttle the whole project.
-
Not having deadline i a way to never get a project off the ground. Everything in life has deadlines, they are the most effective way for people to get things done. If you are arguing for reasonable v unreasonable deadlines I could understand.

Ok Darcy. Let’s adjourn this and revisit in a year. We will see if you or I prove to be right. I predict that TMX will satisfy the courts ruling and resume construction before next winter. You say it will never happen. I say you are wrong. I guess we will see.

I never said that, I am saying people and projects require deadlines. I'm also saying a reasonable deadline doesn't preclude sincerity.
-
People and projects need deadlines if you are at the mercy of investors and private interests. A decade of failed consultations led us to this situation, and only govt can see this through
-
And you don't see the problem with only government can see large projects through? This isn't a Harper Government failure, it's a government failure spanning at least two governments, 6 if you include the provincial govts involved.

This expansion pipeline will never get built under this Government. Guaranteed.

That is nonsensical. Consultations on major projects are on-going throughout the construction phase and through operations. You would do well to inform yourself further on the topics you tweet about.
