Plateau Cattle Co

@CorbLund A classic

To be nominated by mentors, awarded by industry and unconditionally supported by family and friends is humbling and makes us truly grateful. #environmentalstewardship #plateaucattleco #NativeGrasslands #savethemountains #albertabeef youtu.be/XySuewhyKEE?si…

Here are 2 bonafide experts discussing what's wrong w the Grassy Mtn coal picture. Kolijn is a 6 continent mining engineer for 40 years, Donahue was AB Govt's Executive Director of Science. It's a mess for our water and the economics don't add up at all. So why are we doing this?

After Ft McLeod Coal Town Hall fiasco I'll be discussing coal issues tmrw 8:30 AM on Real Talk w Ryan Jespersen. Will be joined by two serious experts. Bill Donahue, fmr AB Govt Exec Science Director & Cornelis Kolijn, career coal engineer. Please share. tinyurl.com/ysym27pv

We need everyone out to this event tmrw in Ft McLeod. We're into year #8 of drought for Ag in southern AB. Allowing foreign coal companies to mess with our water at this point is inexplicable, crooked and irresponsible for AB Ag and for the public in general.

Alberta, if you care about having your mtns & water ruined by foreign coal companies please attend in Ft McLeod tmrw. Premier & Ministers will be speaking. Please come & respectfully inform them that we STILL don't want these mines.  Wed, June 11, Ft McLeod Hall, 301 25 St, 5pm

A country musician, a former coal policy committee member, and a conservation worker have challenged the premier to a coal debate: highriveronline.com/articles/a-cou… @CorbLund

@Leodor2024 @CorbLund Then you should know better "Leodor," than to allow our past 40 years of coal legacy to happen in our headwaters/eastern slopes & prime agricultural corridor- fact is the system has failed- these are FOREIGN coal companies shipping met coal to Asian markets. #ideologic

@CorbLund 40 years in the global mining industry makes me qualified.

I've been deeply immersed in this issue and have studied it from all sides for years, and with respect, based on some of your comments, I don't believe you are knowledgeable enough about it for me to take your opinion seriously. I respectfully agree to disagree, sir.

Dr Colin Cooke is the lead AB Govt scientist on 4 publicly available studies that clearly show coal mines contaminate our water and our air. Taxpayer funded. CBC, Global and CTV have all requested interviews. Govt of AB has not allowed it. This should be very concerning to you.

Absolutely!

Thank you to The Canadian Club of Calgary for hosting an event on coal mining and bringing voices from the eastern slopes in southern Albertan. These are important messages from the speakers: “It’s not a partisan fight, it’s a strategic fight … it’s not about left or right, it’s about Alberta and it’s about Alberta’s tomorrow." Kevin Van Tighem author and former superintendent of Banff National Park. “It wasn’t, you know, raging leftists that brought me into this fight. It was ranching families from (near) Nanton who were going to have their generational ranches affected and in some cases destroyed by open pit mines and their water greatly affected." @CorbLund songwriter who grew up on his family’s farm and ranches around Alberta. “My nightmare scenario is that the AER ignores the result of the joint review panel and just rubber stamps the approval of Grassy Mountain" @Spearmac former mayor of Lethbridge. calgaryherald.com/news/politics/…

And the mine site isn't even in the Municipality of Crowsnest Pass. It's in Ranchlands MD, next door. And they didn't get to vote. But their councillors voted unanimously AGAINST the mine in council. Just one more example of smoke and mirrors and dishonesty around this project

‘It’s a catastrophe’: Southern Alberta’s ag industry concerned over potential coal mining pollution ctvnews.ca/calgary/lethbr…

It's an extremely good read. Explains the issue very succinctly.

It's just word games. They'll say whatever they have to to get at the coal and the money.

Alberta, it's getting down to the wire with the coal issue. The govt just opened up the whole Eastern Slopes AGAIN to foreign companies. If you don't want coalmines in our Rockies & water source, flood your MLAs with emails & phone calls. Goal line stand, they're coming for real.

Alberta lifts ban on coal mining in the eastern slopes globalnews.ca/video/10971207… Our watershed and ag industry should not be sacrificed to cover mistakes made by government- in overpromises and unethical lobbying of foreign coal companies.

Hey AB. Since the govt press conf right before Christmas we're right back to where we were a few years ago when Albertans got VERY angry about the removal of Lougheed Coal Policy w/ zero public consultation. Here's a current interview I just did about it: cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…

March and Rally of over 200 in Lethbridge today as we protested Coal Mining in the Eastern Slopes. #NoToCoal #WaterNotMines.
