Greg Urguhart – What happens if the pipeline is completed? “It’s not going to be good. The oil company doesn’t have a great track record with regards to environmental concerns, particularly once the pipeline is built. There’s so much spillage and leakage and they want to put this thing under the river. I cannot fathom how they ever got approval for that. I mean, I don’t think it takes a rocket scientist to see this isn’t going to end well. That river is a water source for so many people, not just the tribes here but across the country.” Is this resistance movement something that can move to another fossil fuel fight? “I definitely believe it is. This is the first time I have seen all 500 plus nations gather together and rally behind a cause. When we’re united, we make changes happen.” What affect will Donald Trump’s election have on you? I’m concerned, especially as it relates to environmental concerns. He’s from big business, and quite honestly, I think he’s going support big business and look the other way. Unlike our previous president who took on issues like this. “
