There have been many spills on the Trans Mountain pipeline and their will be
many more, this is just another statistic. In my experience this company does its utmost to keep these spills from public view. I can forward a summary report of these

Satisfaction Guaranteed When Peters learned that he was being fired, he went to see the
head of human resources. "Since I've been with the firm for so long," he said, "I think I
deserve at least a letter of recommendation." The human resources director agreed and
said he'd have the letter that next day. The following morning, Peters found the letter on
his desk. It read, "Jonathan Peters worked for our company for eleven years. When he
left us, we were very satisfied."
