Inspiring. Most of Vancouver Island is in a similar situation where we grow less that 10% of what we consume.

Nearly 80% of Albertaβs wells, & their associated pipelines & facilities, are inactive or not worth producing.

Canada, we have a problem. Hundreds of thousands of aging and inactive oil + gas wells are polluting our land/air/water + threatening our health.
This is unfinished business that must be tackled with smart policy. Check out this great report by @pembina.org on the issue.π

Remember Brian Jean at the Fort Macleod town hall insisting the UCP could ensure no water contamination? How does he explain this government study? Also remember his Feb. 2021 open letter to Jason Kenney opposing coal mines?
