Andrew Nikiforuk - Tar Sands: Dirty Oil and the Future of a Continent

Calgary based journalist and author Andrew Nikiforuk delivers a powerful and revealing presentation -- based on his book of the same name -- on what is really going on with the Alberta Tar Sands. In his talk he discusses the back story, the present and the dim fate of all oil-addicted "Petro-States". This is Canada's largest and most environmentally destructive mega-project ever and if we don't rethink our dependency on this massive energy and water wasteful venture, then we will have much more to worry about than just our economy. Featuring an afterword by Elizabeth May.

This event was sponsored by the Green Party of Canada.
This event was filmed in 2011, not 2001 as expressed in the credits. (Oooops.)
