B.C. environmental activist says focus on U.S. funding of anti-pipeline movement misses the point
But environmental activist Tzeporah Berman argues that Canada's pipeline decisions are an international issue and that the focus on where the money comes from detracts from climate-change concerns.
"The amount of money that has gone to environmental organizations for campaigns is a drop in the bucket compared to what the oil industry and the governments are spending," she said.
"This is a campaign that's run by Canadians and is Indigenous-led — to fearmonger that somehow it's run by American foundations is insulting to the thousands of Canadians who are standing up."
