Ep. #57 ~ Pt. 2 Living In God's Country W/ Ron & Monelle Fraser

Benga’s Grassy Mountain Coal Project has confronted my wife and I with great challenges in our lives. We were forced out of our property on the southern slopes Grassy Mountain four years ago, shortly after we discovered that Benga had included our property as part of the mine pit proper in their proposal to mine coal. This was done without our permission or knowledge. We have now reestablished on the Eastern slopes of the Livingston Range. As your constituent, I am writing to declare my profound dissatisfaction with your government’s decision to remove previous protections that restricted open pit coal mining in these crown of the continent areas, including the sensitive headwaters of the watershed. Tens of thousands of Albertans downstream depend on this water.
