Environment Department: University of Alberta

University of Alberta: "It's a very damning analysis of what's been going on here," Mulcair told reporters Thursday after meetings at the University of Alberta, according to Huffington Post. On Tuesday, Court of Queen's Bench Justice Richard Marceau said Environment Department bureaucrats contravened their own laws by enacting a shadow policy in 2009 to stop the Oil Sands Environmental Coalition from speaking to reviews of proposed oilsands operations and EDMONTON - Federal NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair says a judge's finding that Alberta's Environment Department has been covertly working to silence oilsands critics reinforces widespread cynicism that the province's approval process for projects is rigged. "To have a judge come out so clearly and to say that there's an absolute breach of the fundamental rules of natural justice in the process simply reinforces the perception of a lot of Canadians in general and a lot of Albertans in particular that the dice have been loaded."
