Maybe Jane should stick to screwing old men, eh
Investors can do what they like with their money.
Jane was a guest of a Northern tribal band,that's all
Jane provided an opinion regarding what she was invited to see,
I thank her for giving of her time,and welcomed her opinion
I don't know why people are acting like people can't have a paid opinion

Salty is one thing but then it becomes too aggressive,rural Alberta is an aggressive place when there is differences of opinion
Then compliment a woman then things really get out of hand.
I cannot believe how women talk about women
I do get a laugh out of the enviro-tards who fly over the oil patch and act like it's hell on Earth. Yep, it's not pretty, but it never really was. Oil has always leached into the waterways in the area. It was fairly devoid of life even before the full-on exploitation of the oil sands. The grasses were always brown except when they first sprang up. Shrubs were pretty much non-existent. And trees were twisted and dying long before they reached maturity. All because they were being poisoned by the oil locked just under the surface. Even wildlife was pretty rare. Outside of some water fowl on the water, you didn't see much other wildlife in the area.
I also love it when some nitwit tries to post "before" and after pics of the oil sands. I've noticed that pretty much all of the "before" pics are not true before pics. Hell, a few were obviously pics from western Alberta while others showed a lush grassland as the "before" pic. Yeah, there were grasses, but they sure as hell weren't lush. Those same people are also incredibly reluctant to post pics of the various reclamation projects in the area. In some places, now that the oil that was closer to the surface has been removed, the reclaimed land is greener than it was prior to any extraction operations.

I guess Jane the ignorant **** has never flown over her own backyard. Kern River oil field Just outside of Bakersfield, California.
Or here.
Or the Chevron oil field in Coalinga, California.
Of course we can't forget the Inglewood oil field, right smack in the middle of L.A.
In fact, there are currently 42 oil fields in California that are producing oil, not counting offshore operations.
If Fonda felt the need to bitch about oil production, she merely needed to step out of her door.
And of course, the fact that the oil industry despoils every area it exploits completely negates Fonda's comments.
Just wondering. How much of the tar sands has been reclaimed? Is it even one percent? As of two years ago only 104 hectares out of 1.4 million had been satisfactory reclaimed. At that rate the reclamation will still going on sometime in the 23th Century. I'm guessing the tar sands will end up like all areas the oil industry has developed and be left pretty much as it is.
That I doubt very much. Did you hear what she had to say? She's an idiot and on top of that a traitor to her country. Not someone to be proud of, that's for sure. Only things she's ever done (besides acting) is becoming the ex-wife of Ted Turner which was extremely lucrative for her LOL.
I believe the last I hear that 20% of the oil sands had been reclaimed so it's likely even more now. The regulations in Alberta are quite strict and the penalties severe for not doing so. The problem is, Alberta seems to be the scape goat for absolutely everything that has gone wrong in other areas of the world and gets blamed for things that have nothing to do with the Oil sands. It's extremely frustrating to have people come into our province and do nothing but belittle what we have here. I'm thinking it's more out of jealousy than anything because we've actually done things the right way as opposed to places like (California) where they have oil rigs on school grounds.
JMHO
Fonda is nothing more than a has-been looking for attention and relevance.
Ted is busy cleaning his guns right now... Wonder how Janie feels about that

Fort McMurray First Nation distances itself from Jane Fonda's oilsands tour
Fort McMurray No. 468 First Nation is distancing itself from Jane Fonda's tour of the oilsands and from one of its members who endorses the Hollywood actress's message.
Chief executive Brad Callihoo said the Cree and Dene band government could not build homes and other infrastructure in the community if it weren't for oilsands development.
"We can't do that with government funding," he said. "That's done because we do world class work for the industry up here."
Fonda, an actress and social activist, spent two days this week in Alberta, where she flew over the oilsands, lunched in Fort McMurray, and held two media events in Edmonton.
She condemned the environmental record of oil companies and blasted Canada's prime minister for betraying his commitments at the Paris climate talks.

The First Nation issued a press release Thursday saying it played no part in organizing Fonda's visit and that former band councillor Cleo Desjarlais Reece, who appeared with Fonda, did not represent the First Nation.
The release also said the band supports the "responsible development" of the oilsands and its partnerships with industry.
Wildrose Leader and Fort McMurray MLA Brian Jean applauded the statement and expressed puzzlement at why Canadians are convinced First Nations communities don't work with and benefit from the oil industry.
"I still think we have a lot of work left to do," he said. "We have very successful communities in Northern Alberta.
"I am very proud of the band that came forward."

Actually, you're numbers are just a little bit off. The total area of the oil sand mining footprint is a little over 90, thousand hectares. Your 1,400,000 hectare number is off by 1500%.
For your reference, the total area of the Alberta oil sands deposit is 140,000 sq. km. The active mining footprint is 904 sq. km. I hope you're not suggesting that areas of the deposit not affected by mining operations should be expected to be reclaimed. If so, reclaimed from what?
The little black dot in the yellow area on the map above represents the active mining footprint.

It's nice that Jane is finally getting some recognition. I, for one, am still frothing that she was passed by for an Oscar for her portrayal of the title role in "Barbarella: Queen of the Galaxy". The depth she brought to the part was right up there with the likes of Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson.
Bar Sinister, you should see if you can apply for a job as Jane's Bat Boy.
Stop that right now!
Do not present facts to a environmental Kool Aid Drinker. Doing so will make them cry and tear at their clothes.

Where do you live?
Let's talk world oil politics
Fort Mac is old talk,boring
I am grateful Jane took time out of her busy schedule to visit Alberta and give her opinion,on the coldest day of the year at that
Thanks for coming Jane
Does she twitter?
