Why is this government obsessed with coal mining? They’re selling out farmers, ranchers, and every Albertan who values clean water.

We deserve a premier who works for us—not lobbyists. Let’s stand up for our land, water, and future.

From secretive policy changes to backroom deals, Danielle Smith and the UCP has put coal industry profits ahead of protecting our water, lands, and communities. 🏔💧

It’s time to prioritize people and the environment over corporate interests.

Some good things are happening in rural Alberta and this is one of them. Last night’s coal town hall in Fort MacLeod drew many impassioned voices and this was one of them. Bringing the science to an evidence-adverse government. 👏🏼 👏🏼

Call to Action 📝

This is an official petition that will be tabled in the Alberta Legislature. If you would like to solicit signatures for this petition, I can provide you with a PDF for you to print.

Have your voice heard on the Grassy Mountain coal mine issue. Petition: To the Legislative Assembly of Alberta in Legislature Assembled: We, the undersigned residents of Alberta, petition the Legislative Assembly to urge the government of Alberta to introduce legislation to immediately terminate the Grassy Mountain coal project proposed by Northback Holdings for the following reasons: 1. Northback has not provided verifiable practices to control selenium contamination in the Oldman River Basin. 2. The risks of substantial harm to the environment, water and the agrifood economy of Southern Alberta far exceed the benefits of the proposed coal mine.

Trout aren’t just the quarry for a few anglers. They speak to us on the impacts of coal mining. Trout form our distant early warning indicators and are the bellwethers of danger. To ignore their message is to ignore our peril.
