The RCMP’s costs for patrolling a remote resource road on Wet’suwet’en territory to protect a pipeline project rose almost 60 per cent last year to $11 million, despite no significant police actions in the area.

As an I.T person who used to work in OS Security, this is all too familiar:

  • secure the operation and nothing bad happens -- well that was a big waste of money
  • secure the operation and something bad happens -- well that was a big waste of money

Good to see it's not just us.
