How terrific: a front page Globe article written by an enviro-screamer who uses this bully pulpit to create a picture of hordes of defenseless animals "murdered" for the crime of drinking from those terrible tailings ponds.

All part of a campaign to keep the hyperbolic lies about the oilsands in the public eye.

Travel north of Fort Mac and you will see the results of remediation efforts as well as seeing the tailings ponds themselves.

Hundreds of millions of dollars spent yearly by Suncor and other oilsands producers for recovery and remediation - but no mention of that from the screamers.

The unmasking of the radical environmentalist movement in Canada, and their true agenda, is yesterday's news. But the Globe soldiers on.

How about a counter article from the CEO of one of these rapacious "evil" oilsands firms. I am sure they would appreciate equal time, in between their efforts to provide employment to hundreds of thousands of Canadians.
