'Tree-sit' direct action blocks Keystone XL tar sands pipeline in Texas | rabble.ca: While Enbridge took a page from the Keystone Kops playbook with its response to the 2010 tar sands oil spill in Michigan, TransCanada seems fond of the bull in a china shop approach to pipeline construction.
"For the past seven days there's been 24-hour police surveillance and the blockade's learned that TransCanada has hired off-duty police officers to be their private security force. They're paying out of town cops to babysit the blockade and these police officers are wearing their uniforms," says Tar Sands Blockade spokesperson Ron Seifert. "What's interesting here is you have the government itself working for TransCanada," says Seifert.
