March 3 was the day the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) held its annual
meeting in Toronto. RBC is the largest financier of the environmentally
devastating Alberta Tar Sands project. Since 2007 the RBC has extended
over $14.3 billion (USD) in credit to companies operating in the
Alberta Tar Sands. The tar sands operation currently uses 350 billion
litres of water annually, with 90% of that water being so toxic after
use to process the heavy crude oil that it kills any animal that
consumes it. RBC states that water quality is a top corporate priority.
In support of activists who were gathering at the RBC annual meeting in
Toronto, a group of Climate Change Protection Ninjas descended upon a
reported environmental crime scene in Regina. Click on 'read more' to see their photographic docket.
