Скачать или смотреть Virtual Town Hall: Robust? Environmental Regulation of Coal Mining in Alberta

In January 2021, Environment and Parks Minister Jason Nixon tried to soothe Albertans’ concerns about opening up the Rockies and Foothills to coal mining with these words:

“We have a robust regulatory system - significantly more robust than in 1976, and environmental regulations have come a long way since then.”

On June 8 2021, AWA, in collaboration with the Coal Policy Working Group, hosted the fourth in our ongoing series of Town Hall evenings to look carefully at Minister Nixon’s claim. We were joined by three experts:

● Mandy Olsgard, B.Sc., M.Sc.:
Senior Toxicologist and Risk Assessor, Integrated Toxicology Solutions
● William Donahue, Ph.D, LL.B.:
Independent Consultant, Environmental Risk Assessment
● Colton Vessey, M.Sc.:
PhD student (Environmental Geochemistry and Mineralogy),
University of Alberta
