Now the little bunnies can sit on the ground without getting their powder puff tails stuck to their ass because of oil seeping out of the ground.

This is why I always ask the hugger crowd 'have you been there?'. I've seen the reclaimed land - and you'd never know it was once an open pit mine.

We should stampede the buffalo next time Greenpeace arrives.

Yes, that'll learn them to use their right to peacefully assemble and peacefully protest.

1 down and a couple dozen to go.
I'm glad that Syncrude was able to reclaim the land and make it viable again, but I'm scared to ask what it cost. SAGD kills every microorganism in the oilsand and turns it into basically just sand, which will not support plant life at all.
Hopefully everyone else operating up there will be willing to make the same effort when it comes to reclamation.
