So the government pumped $25 million into an Alberta marketing scheme so people will think the oilsands are environmentally friendly? Why not make them environmentally friendly first?

Plus I read an article about how Stelmach is denying the CHR a $25-million boost to open beds at new facilities. But they'll put this money into advertising Alberta as all Earth friendly, which is like trying to market that United States has good foreign relations.

How do these people keep winning elections?
Well if that money is pointed to educating people like you who clearly demonstrate that they know nothing about the oil and gas industry then its worth it. There is a very direct relationship between naivety and venom towards governments ... the spending makes sense to me.
