Some members of the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe are trying to stop a planned oil pipeline from crossing their reservation in northern Minnesota.
Member Sandy Nichols said she’s gathered signatures from nearly 1,000 members out of about 9,800 statewide to oppose the pipeline known as the Alberta Clipper, which is being built by Enbridge Energy Inc. The 1,000-mile pipeline will travel from in Alberta, Canada, to Superior, Wis.
