Interesting side note...

Beverly,Deputy Minister of Alberta Environment discussed at great length, with many words the newly released draft of April 6th LARP (Lower Athabasca ??) which describes Alberta's position on the treatment of water of the Lower Athabasca and Sask. Rivers... filled with good intentions - but NO legal teeth. Later ,oddly enough, I ate lunch at the same table as she- with other Albertans. While listening to McKinney of Alabama,head of the class action suit against BP Deep Horizon Oil spill. He began with Alabama College football,giving away football jerseys and paid respects and thanks to the lady who actually wrote the 500 page conclusion. We ate mildly cooked beef. I ate it!It was almost raw!
Judy Stewart, the opposing argument, of what is happening to the wetlands- was interrupted by Fire Alarms- I had not realised that the Alberta Government was listening to every word that was said.
I forgot the papers on the plane...
