First Nations say Alberta’s oilsands mine security reform unlikely to fix problems
After attending all the meetings, four First Nations submitted a document to the government, obtained by The Canadian Press, that suggests they fear meaningful reform is not forthcoming.
The document outlines a series of concerns with the direction First Nations fear the government is going. Leach said the government’s direction will work if oil prices remain stable or increase. If they don’t, Alberta– and its taxpayers — risk having to cover a vast liability left stranded. Although companies are required to return their operations to “equivalent land usage,” the First Nations say they have not been consulted on what that means.
