Alberta has approved oil-sands expansion 70KMs north of Fort McMurray, even though a joint review panel appointed by the federal environment minister indicated significant environmental impact.
Once again, Harper continues to clearly indicate the words environment and global warming are not in his vocabulary.
The Pembina Institute said Canada’s reputation is being put further at risk as it keeps approving oil-sands projects in the absence of adequate rules for global warming or wetland protection.
It is time for a change at the federal level. Hopefully, for our next federal elections, someone stands up for the environment ... and the majority of voters actually vote for the environment.
