The suggestion that  Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency didn't adequately consult is absolutely ridiculous. The first nations consulted include: Lax Kw’alaams Band; Metlakatla First Nation; Gitxaala Nation; Kitsumkalum First Nation; Kitselas First Nation; Gitga’at First Nation; Office of the Wet’suwet’en; Gitanyow Hereditary Chiefs; Takla Lake First Nation; Gitxsan Hereditary Chiefs, including Wilp Delgamuukw, Wilp Gwininitxw, and Wilp Luutkudziiwus (Gitxsan).
In addition, written submissions were also provided by First Nations who were not directly affect by the pipeline. There is absolutely no reason why Simogyet Malii didn't participate.
