Ottawa Clean-Up Crew @ Dept. Foreign Affairs (DFAIT): Episode 1

As Canadian representatives "participate" at the UN climate change summit (COP 17) in Durban, South Africa, an Oil Clean-up Crew visited the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) to clean out the oil industry's influence on the Canadian government's foreign policy.

The clean-up crew discovered severe oil contamination at DFAIT, including the prioritizing of oil industry interests over those of Canadian citizens, the green-washing of the tar sands, and billions of dollars leaking in the form of subsidies to oil corporations
