And how many spills either go unreported or pushed under the rug? The most recent one in the news is the Obed coal mine and the government saying that it was nothing to worry about. How is that going now? That is a major spill, so how many small ones don't even get looked at? Don't think any clean-up is being done with a billion litre spill so what's the likelihood the government is holding companies accountable for a minor spill every single time? Probably not very good.
