TELUS, news, headlines, stories, breaking, canada, canadian, national - Key proponent of controversial gas drilling in Quebec to miss start of hearings

Well as a former speech writer for Mr. Charest who was very embarrassed by his arrest for drinking and driving in Australia back in the day, I can't believe the people let him hold that seat of ultimate power in Quebec. But wait a second these are the folks who are getting into worldwide liquor distribution now, cause they can.... k. I get it. I like wine too. But is he really qualified to facilitate the debate and take the hard line on the oily gas industry? Looks like Doctors have to bail out the business boyz cause they ain't got the heart to look us in the eye ( in this case us Frenchies... ) and tell us there ain't no danger, no toxics just profits to be made...

Art to Inspire Action

I'm so inspired by these friends of mine!

Dick At It Again, Hmm, a common theme here

Kick Kennedy tells it like it is.... too bad so many don't want to hear it

Robert Kennedy's granddaughter, activist Kick Kennedy awesome speech at Hangout Festival I really like what she has to say. She is following the path of her predecessors, rhetorically anyway. I like her. I think the organizers sabotaged her possibly though. She didn't seem to have much light on her, the turned her mike either down or off at many points (been there) and, unfortunately, she seems to be in the wrong venue for her speech. There must have been either partiers booing her for taking up entertainment time with politics or, union guys? What d'yall think? I'd like her to come here and speak.

It's everywhere

Here in Canada the fracking may be happening so far away from most people that we are barely aware it's happening but in the U.S. people are living close by and are documenting the travesties. Here's a texas blog with pictures of this stuff going on.

I suffer from endocrine issues as do many. It's time we stopped denying the causes.

Everyone's talking about it!

April 2010 is an exciting month in the world of anti-fracking.

"Last month, nobody had heard about it. Now, everybody’s talking about it," said a Philadelphia City Council member. While residents of Philly can applaud the council, who on March 25 passed a resolution opposing any fracking unless and until an Environmental Impact Statement is completed for the Delaware River watershed they'll have a hard time getting the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to follow through with that no doubt. Prior to a horrendous explosion and fire, residents had spent three days attempting to contact them to report noxious fumes emanating from the open pit which caught fire March 31st.
