Really? You honestly think that? The Alberta government doesn't seem to be on the side of the individual but stand up for big business. How is the Athabasca river doing right now and what are the fines being handed out to the mining company which released obscene amounts of junk into the river? They are still mining there aren't they? I have worked upwards of 20 years in the oilpatch in various degrees and have seen the garbage that companies get away with, the only thing that I see the Alberta government care about is revenues.

You don't think that wastewater/chemicals are spilled onto ground surface? With the amount of it being pulled out I would think you would be naïve to think it's all disposed of properly.
