I have a hard time believing the leakage can't be contained. The shale play and the resulting natural gas boom is relatively new in the US. The technology landscape will be a lot better in 5 years.
Only if there is incentive to fix it.

One of the biggest reasons they leak, according to the article, has nothing to do with technology. It's because they are improperly capped and then abandoned and forgotten.

The province doesn't care, the Feds don't care, why should the oil companies care?
