RELEASE: True Cost Accounting would tell the whole story on proposed Teck/Frontier mine

The Joint Review Panel convenes on September 25, 2018 to review Teck's application for a brand new bitumen mine in Alberta. This, the largest and most northerly mine yet, is right next to endangered UNESCO world heritage site, the Wood Buffalo National Park, and the application runs over 4000 pages. It is contested by First Nations, environmental groups, and other concerned citizens. As Canada looks for that sweet spot between energy development and environmental protection, we need True Cost Accounting to help us get the whole story. Including all of the costs in the accounting for any project delivers its 'true cost': not just costs for project proponents, but real costs for Canadians today, and also the costs for future generations.
