My view out the kitchen window this morning. The sun kissed clouds slip over Turtle Mountain. To the left you can see the edge of the Frankslide. #CrowsnestPass

Does the Alberta gov have sufficient legislation in place for coal miners safety? Gawd knows we don't need another frankslide due to lax regulations as we know the UCP hates regulations let alone following policy. #ableg #abpoli #abgov #corruptcare

Thinking about taking my field class to the #FrankSlide and was reminded of my china teacup commemorating the event. Googled 'Frank Slide teacup' and came up with exactly one relevant hit, which was a post by me on Club Tread to a note by @DrewBrayshaw back in 2010.

Not super historically accurate (especially the First Nations intervention), but neat that Stompin' Tom Connors, Canada's "people's troubadour" wrote a song about the #FrankSlide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPnu3HkNclA

This PowerPoint presentation includes a brief history of the Frank Slide disaster, a description of the assignment, and links to videos and photos for student research.
