Alberta rural municipalities want “No Duty of Care” AER – industry’s self-regulating servant, to make oil and gas companies pay their taxes (over $250 Million owed and growing). Will a delinquent multi billion dollar profit-raping industry make itself pay its debts as it wipes out earth’s livability? Not even in your dreams.

Frac’ing is a health crisis! Releases radiation: as airborn particles; *radon into homes and water wells*; in brine/waste dumped on leases, roads, croplands, pastures; contaminating farms, communities, wildlife, livestock, families (frac’ing has been linked to leukemia and lymphoma in kids), workers, foods, landfills, trucks and rig equipment

Time to smell the bitumen; Alberta collected less than $1 over 13 years from $Billion profit-raping tarsands companies for clean-up. Obviously, gov’t and AER don’t plan to make industry clean up or seal their climate chaos causing leaking wells. Companies only care about money and $billions in subsidies from ordinary Canadians (struggling to feed their kids), lots of lies, secrets, toxic cover-ups, refusing to pay taxes, and propagandizing you and your kids.

Canada, finally, bans *all* use of strychnine (yes, even in Cruelville Alberta, effective September after six-month phase-out) – a terrible way to die. Health Canada found more strychnine was used than number of poisoned carcasses retrieved, resulting in strychnine-poisoned carcasses available for other animals to feed on, increasing risk of secondary poisoning. What will vile anti-life, anti-science Danielle Smith and her evil Evangelicals do?
