Did Enbridge intend to mislead press and public?

The Anishinaabek Caucus of Michigan alerts the media and the public of misleading representation of tribal positions concerning Line-5. Enbridge recently posted a video implying that the 12 federally recognized tribes of Michigan are open to "starting the journey and the possibility of reconciliation" concerning Line-5 via traditional peacemaking. This is false.
The video was created by 7th Legacy LLC, and thus does not have any authority to speak on behalf of any tribe. The video conveys a false narrative of cultural “peacemaking” traditions” and it was not endorsed by the Michigan tribes. Neither, to our knowledge, have the respective Tribal leaders been consulted.
