Mackenzie Valley worth more alive than dead
Despite environmental reports suggesting that gas from the Mackenzie Valley pipeline would be mostly used to fuel more oil and gas development, the debates continue, with a clause added to the project that could force development to begin within two years.
But what the oil companies want doesn't add up - the Mackenzie River region has been calculated to be worth ten times more, left untouched, than it would be if it were developed.
If you'd rather see Canada's wildest big river left as a priceless natural resource, say so at MackenzieWild.ca.
