For the ones who didn’t see it because of the overwhelming
demand on their own site, you can watch it now on youtube.
The new premier of Alberta, Ed Stelmach, successor of Bilderberg
guest in 1995, Ralph Klein(the one responsible for the Albertan disadvantage),
is furious about that video. Well, we know what we can say to that
NWO asshole.

TravellingAlberta.com
offers one-of-a-kind oil sands vacation packages
26 June 2008
Edmonton, Canada — As the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers
(CAPP) embarks on a synchronized propaganda campaign aligned with the
Province's "rebranding" of the tar sands, Greenpeace has launched its
own website to counter the greenwashing.
TravellingAlberta.com is a tongue-in-cheek travel site that uses humour to
communicate a very serious issue to Canadian and international audiences about
the destructive nature of the world's largest industrial development. The
website showcases showcases some of the unique attractions that await travelers
to Alberta: Black sand beaches, toxic lakes and clearcut forests. Until now,
this kind of vacation destination was merely the stuff of science fiction; but
now, it can be experienced first-hand.
"We thought we'd help the province and CAPP with their
"rebranding" campaign by bringing Alberta's newest tourist
attractions to the world's doorstep. Any visitor to the Alberta tar sands can
see the pollution, smell the sulfur, taste the toxins and hear the air cannons
— we're saving them the trip," says Mike Hudema, a tar sands
campaigner with Greenpeace.
"Premier Ed Stelmach and CAPP can spend 25 million dollars of tax payers'
money trying to cleanup the image of the tar sands, but this development is
still dirty, ugly and foul. That money would be much better spent cleaning up
the tar sands themselves, rather than just the global image."
But while a real cleanup of the area is still a way off, the current state of
northern Alberta offers a rare treat for the seasoned globetrotter who's
craving something new. A seemingly endless expanse of bitumen-laden sands
— coupled with the powerful scent of oil from refineries wafting through
the hazy air — makes Northern Alberta a truly one-of-a-kind destination.
As the long weekend approaches and families make their summer vacation plans,
TravellingAlberta.com offers these adventure tips:
• Diversion surfing: Catch a wave, Alberta-style, and
join Big Oil in taking advantage of the nearly 92 billion gallons of water diverted
from provincial rivers each year!
• Animal sightings: Moose playing in tailings ponds,
loons drenched in tar and ducks sinking in oil: it's not everywhere that you
can see some of Canada's most prized wildlife in these unique settings. Hurry
though! They're going fast!
• Tailings sailing: Come enjoy the vast lakes of toxic
water, so big they're visible to the naked eye from space! Chase that horizon,
but be careful not to capsize!
• Fun in the sun: Forget Cancun, Alberta is sizzling!
Boasting more greenhouse gas emissions than Canada's three other most populous
provinces combined, it's really heating up out here!
Greenpeace will promote the website internationally, calling on visitors to
share the site with friends and to write Premier Ed Stelmach, Travel Minister
Cindy Ady and Prime Minister Stephen Harper to demand they put the brakes on
tar sand development.
