RCMP say a group of about 20 people armed with axes attacked security guards and smashed vehicle windows at a northern work site in February

The Independent Contractors and Businesses Association of B.C. is offering a $100,000 reward for information about an attack on Coastal GasLink employees at a northern work site in February.

RCMP say a group of about 20 people armed with axes attacked security guards and smashed vehicle windows at the site near Houston, wrecking heavy machinery and throwing smoke bombs at officers arriving on the scene. Association president Chris Gardner says the reward will go to anyone providing information leading to arrests and charges against the “thugs and criminals” behind the attack, which RCMP say caused millions of dollars in damage.Linda Annis, executive director of Metro Vancouver Crime Stoppers, says it’s reasonable for anyone with information about the attack to fear retaliation.

But she says the group had never identified any informants, nor has any ever had to testify in court. “You’ll help bring those responsible for this horrific attack to justice,” Annis said at a news conference hosted by the RCMP.“No one at any workplace in British Columbia or their families should live in fear that when they go to clock in at their place of work that they are at risk of attacks,” he said.

20 axe wielding maniacs storm a work site in Canada. Can't believe this was just a blip in the news cycle for political reasons and not a national scandal for weeks. Canada further demonstrating it is a tinpot hinterland and not a model power.

RCMP know exactly who committed these acts of violence. It's politics.

It was Deez

If the authorities can’t do anything about it the people will.

Possible suspects

Bummer, no circular pattern quantum comp surveillance? I guess they would be happy with just an old school trapline hunting camera.

Why wasn’t the EA evokes? I mean this was a threat

Typical environmental cowards, do damage, cause mayhem, break laws, threaten citizens, and run away, never take responsibility. Sounds just like the LiberalHypocrisy

Even I knew I would never snitch

I have a suspect

If 40 cops on cop salaries couldn't get to the bottom of it then a $100,000 reward will not do it either. Because we already know cops were behind it
