"Some accuse the #FederalGovernment of abandoning the province. Others point to what they call a captive provincial regulator. All agree that there’s no way #leaks from #ImperialOil ’s #Kearl #TailingsPonds should have gone #unreported for nine months to both #Ottawa & #Edmonton , as well as the people who live near it."

“A second #leak, reported by the company on Feb. 4, spilled an estimated 5.3 million litres of #industrial #waste #water… into nearby #forest and #wetlands from a storage pond.”
