#Canada pay for #Tarsands, #OrphanWells #Cleanup and soon #Canadian #Taxpayers can pay $billions to clean up #SeleniumPollution from #UCP #DanielleSmith #CoalMines in #Alberta!
meanwhile, we'll join the USA 🤣 (parody, folks).
Explosion hazards, health risks, gases that can't be detected - people on the call are asking questions.
Mark Dorin: "It's atrocious what is happening to Albertans living close to these oil and gas sites."
Popowich: "They're willing to put us at risk."

Popowich says it's not easy to stand up to your government and tell them they're doing it wrong.
"But the problem is a lot bigger than people realize."
The group is asking landowners to contact them with their stories.
#ableg #cdnpoli #orphanwells #polluterpays
This is the group's summary of the Mature Asset Strategy.
There's also a new detailed post on the ABLawg blog about this problem:

Bill Heidecker from the Alberta Surface Rights Federation is speaking to the extent of the problem now.
"We're asking to double production, but there's no strategy to fix the fundamental problem."
#ableg #cdnpoli #orphanwells #polluterpays
Popowich is now explaining that 900 landowners impacted by the Sequoia Resources bankruptcy alone are being compensated by the taxpayers for their time and expense on the upkeep (weed control, etc.) on these orphaned wells and infrastructure.
#ableg #cdnpoli #orphanwells #polluterpays
More town halls in person are planned in October. The group organizing this can be found at cleanupyourmess.ca
#ableg #cdnpoli #orphanwells #polluterpays
Susanne Calabrese, a lawyer representing Popowich is now talking about the conflict of interest complaint filed against David Yager.

🇨🇦 So you support forcing #Canadians to pay #Millions in subsidies to #OilBillionaires on top of the costs that #Canadians are forced to pay to clean up #OrphanWells and the costs caused by climate change? All of this while ridiculing a single #Greencompany for struggling?
