Wrath of Lamb April 20/10

So, the BC government has announced it will go ahead with a huge dam project in the northern part of the province. They say it's needed in order to meet the energy needs of BC in the next century. They say they don't know how much it will cost, but it'll probably be more than 6-billion dollars. That's dam expensive. Premier Gordon Campbell says it'll create thousands of jobs, and that's a dam good thing. But some environmental groups and First Nations think it will be dam damaging. That's no dam good. I'm not sure what to think, on one hand we need the dam energy, but on the other hand, can we afford the dam thing? Seems like you're damned if you do, and damned if you don't. Damn.
