Oilsands out of control?
Jan, 31 2007 - 6:10 AM
ALBERTA/630 CHED - A First Nations chief says the oilsands near Fort McMurray are a "growing cancer tumour that's out of control."
Grand Chief Herb Norwegian says the damage has accumulated from lax environmental safeguards. Norwegian and other chiefs from the Northwest Territories toured the oilsands yesterday.
They say, fish are becoming almost inedible and waterfowl are declining in numbers.
