SO WELL DESERVED. Seriously a must-watch for anyone in North America.

New from John Woodside: “By failing to include greenhouse gas emissions in the [Impact Assessment Act], the government is essentially stating that air pollution is not within federal jurisdiction even in cases of cross-border pollution,' warns Laurel Collins. nationalobserver.com/2024/05/06/new…

I do not think most people realize the power of what happened this week.

Rightsholders are warning investors of the risks Imperial is taking with their money, on ACFN (and others) lands!

This should be triggering ExComm meetings all over the place.

- Chief Adam to Imperial Oil shareholders, April 30

'ACFN Chief Allan Adam told [Imperial Oil] shareholders at that the eventual cleanup of the company’s long-life oil sands sites was already a pricey problem for shareholders, and it would only get worse... Imperial is not being honest with its investors'
