Northern Gateway VP Janet Holder: "I'm not running for election."
Reform Party founder and conservative icon Preston Manning
stepped into B.C. oil politics Thursday, when he appeared to give
Enbridge’s vice-president Janet Holder advice on using the lessons of
politics in building more support for the controversial Northern Gateway
pipeline.
Manning was seated next to Holder at a “GLOBE 2014” conference panel in Vancouver that addressed the challenges of transporting oil. He told the panel, which included pipeline engineering and railway executives, that large companies need to communicate their projects as if they were trying to “win an election.”
“Imagine that the project name is on a ballot,” said Manning. “Imagine that the alternatives are on the ballot… and for any of those options to prevail in our current climate in which we live, it needs to win.”
