9.5 million litres of toxic waste spills in Northern Alberta

A joint venture is working on a project together, as EnCana states they have contracted Lakota drilling to do. It does not mean they have given them shares in an oil company, as EnCana states isn't the case.
Whatever. 
I can't imagine that even if they are a contracted partner with Encana, they'd be involved in drenching a large chunk of lake, watershed, etc. in process water. And process water spillage is the issue here, not drilling rigs.

They use gibberish in PR releases all the time. But, they also stated very clearly, that what the Dene have bought, is a 50/50 share in Lakota, contracted to EnCana. Find me proof otherwise.
Looks like that "partnership" was dissolved in 2006 Savanna Acquires 50% Interest in Three Drilling Rigs from the Dene Tha' First Nation through Western Lakota Energy Services Inc. | HighBeam Business: Arrive Prepared

Ask yourself this question: Why is EnCana even mentioned in the article if this is a JV between Lakota and the Dene?
PS - It wouldn't matter if EnCana was the 'client', they wouldn't be ID'd as a 'partner'.
Petros is dead right - they use exact wording for a specific reason.
So they deliberately jaded the meanings of words to fit your agenda? That's hilarious.
I suppose if the Tha Dene partnered with Pepsi and they complained about Coca Cola using more sugar and abusing water supplies it wouldn't be Corporate hogwash because it came from the Tha even though they too are in the cola business because of a partnership?

... But EnCana just added their own fictional participation in a JV for fun?
Get real already
and clearly stated a partnership in a joint venture with EnCana.
What's the motivation to make false statements against the competition?
Did Apache screw them over by not wanting to go into business with them?

EnCana stated pretty clearly that they'd 'partnered' by contracting their rigs to do their drilling. I don't get why you guys find this so confusing.
Hey Pete... I never told you the good news.
I just organized a JV with Husky Canada earlier today... Yup, bought a tank of gas and a wiper blade.
Think I ought to issue a press release?

You're the confused one who thinks English can be altered suit her biased needs
Make sure you slam Shell when doing so.
Yes, I guess so.... Think I might toodle down to the bank and get a big fat line of credit using my new oil company as collateral
Just put it on your Esso card
Better yet, get the rest of the hard working taxpayers in Canada to pay for it because there are no jobs in the oil fields for you people to get training.
