Ive read this whole thread and I still have no idea what the whole slogan on the banner was supposed to mean...none.

Seperate Oil and State. Ummm...OK...I guess. If the idea was to get the government out of the oil business, I think that would be completely contradictory to there known stance of not wanting big oil to do whatever they want.

If it was in protest of the oilsands that they claim are already spoiling the province with toxins etc...then how does pulling back ALL controls there going to help?

Pretty clear that this was no more than a publicity stunt that had zero message behind other than..."look at me".
