This is especially true in British Columbia where natural gas is now the largest source of revenue for the province -- more than $4 billion in 2008 alone (the last year for which there are accurate statistics).

And those two worlds collided in the Dawson Creek, B.C. area 15 months ago when someone started blowing up gas pipelines. |
