The Gore Effect Comes to Calgary
24th November 2013
Chantal Chagnon with the Idle No More movement, said they’re trying to get the attention of the energy industry and the Canadian Parliament to the growing global opposition to “pipelines, tar sands expansions and other polices that contribute to runaway climate change.”
“We’re seeing the effects of global warming and we can’t keep denying it because obviously something is happening,” Chagnon said.

Originally about 300 people were slated to participate in the Calgary protest, but due to a snow storm only about 50 showed up.
Funny how that works.
