I don't buy stocks in tobacco companies (as an example) and outfits that have an utter disregard for the planet.

Whoa, part of the problem? The biologist that has worked in both BC and Alberta, for governments and industry and who showed more insight into the issues in 6 sentences, than this site captured in 12 pages? I don't think so.
While you and the OP have every right to "fight", I would submit that Redlan is simply suggesting that you have a good idea as to whom you are fighting and what you are fighting for. The Flames? Industry? The government? The Flames seem completely misguided, but if it is industry and government, then it is best to understand what the regulations now say and whether Imperial followed said regulations before getting too carried away. Even the quote "one of the biggest environmental disasters in BC" has hardly been determined, based on initial water testing.
The environment is a motherhood issue: no one is against it, and everyone, including Edwards, government and industry, want a healthy sustainable environment. I know that is hard for some to believe, but a healthy community is important for a healthy business (and vice-versa).
