this project = genocide on the native people of this province. With the advent of global warming and the future of water scarcity this project=madness.

Yes, you might be right, but how are you going to stop it?

Captain Planet and the Planeteers? What are THEY doing here? Oh right... it's Alberta.

@monsterredlight Fort chip does not posses a claim for development, this is why they have attracted world wide attention. because they see fort mckay, 13% of them must be employed, land which is excavated must be paid for by the km square. i catch and release on the athabasca every 6 days, never seen a fish deformed. is there an increase in cancer in people WORKING in sites? no! stop being misled and do some research you fking goat, the dog has you going where it wants you,

Lets try to grasp the concept of power. People want power, some more then others. Power comes with money. The biggest money generating industry in the wolrd= energy/Oil. By luck, there is a lot in Alberta. Who has the most power in canada = the governement and private oil industries. Who wants to be more powerfull= them. At the cost of others. Albertas entire social structure is corrupt by the money comming from oil. People have money = compfort = indiference= dont want tosee the big picture.

hard to imagine all the destruction and decay left from these big industries!

You can't even bitch or complain about this, and do you want to know why? Because you buy gas and drive around in vehicles daily.

If you dont want your precious landscape scarred then it's your responsibility as consumers TO STOP BUYING GAS AND SUPPORTING THIS.

Go ride a horse if you're so concerned about "the environment" and stop being a bunch of hypocrites whining about how these hard working people are "killing the planet", guess what? They're doing it for you, you ungrateful eco-snobs.

i work up here, and were actually recovering the land to its origional state. less the oil of course. it looks amazing actually. and all of canada should be proud that we are concerned enough and care enough to reclaim the land. yes, long live alberta blue.................

Take for example the number of hits this video generated from the number say something stupid that does not effect the environment but has more hits. This disposition in viewers cost us our global awareness and eventually will be our downfall. We are consumed to much with sinsationalism rather than protecting our natural resources from narrow minded explorationalist.

How much energy does it take to make a barrel of oil from the oil sands? I heard it is high plus there is millions of gallons of water used.
