🚨 NEW: Brule Coal Mine just received a $13,000 fine for releasing dangerous dust up to 375% over legal limits — 32 times in 18 months.
But this is just the tip of the iceberg.
Brule has a long track record of harm — and it’s featured in our #DirtyDozen2025 report for a reason. 🧵(1/9)
B.C. says it's committed to UNDRIP and environmental protection — but on the ground, outdated mining laws still call the shots.
One mine, Gibraltar, shows how dangerous that gap can be. No review. No consent. And a massive tailings dam expansion on the way.
