hmm..Haiti cut down massive swathes of trees under successive myopic governments. Can't say that's helped them much. Rather than blame Alberta or the oil sands or Fort McMurray (not sure how inanimate objects are supposed to have human morals anyway) perhaps we should look at ourselves first and stop creating a demand.
That creation museum is in Central Alberta, which is the creepiest place in Canada. Super rich, but unpleasant to the core. I lived in Red Deer, the largest city in the region, for a year before moving back to Edmonton. Central Alberta is so bad Edmonton seems like a cosmopolitan metropolis comparatively.

ReplyDeleteIn the 10 years following 1997 tar sands production tripled. In 2007 Alberta's first Creation Museum was opened - by an oil worker.
ReplyDeleteGood for him.
