The truth is, oil companies are some of the least ethical corporations on the planet. Being harboured in Canada doesn't increase their ethical behaviour. It simply masks what they are and have been all along.
Now go read Norm, then go read Ian.
Update: Go Alison!! And check out Holly Stick's links in the comments.
Interesting ... Some people, depending on where they are, cannot access Ian Reid's blog. No one knows why. So ... Norm has reprinted it.

Thanks so much for all the links. Enbridge and Ethical Oil have begun placing full page ads in the local paper and it is great to have some good factual refutation.
One of the interesting aspects of all these denialist organizations is that they're all staffed and promoted and what have you by people who are going to be coming into their upper middle years right about the time the shit gets really thick.
One can only hope that at some point they realize their part in all of it.
Alison has more, about foreign interests in the oil sands:
