Wilderness Committee's Ben West prepares for Tar Sands debate

Friday, November 12, 2010

See this tongue in cheek video of Ben West, the Wilderness Committee's Healthy Communities campaigner as he goes under-cover to interview Vancouver bookie "Jimmy Fingers" to prepare for West's upcoming debate with Ezra Levant. 

Levant claims that Canada's Tar Sands oil is "ethical" because our country has a clean record on human rights abuses - unlike some other oil producing countries.

West argues that there is no such thing as ethical oil in this era of runaway human-caused climate change and that Canada is guilty of its own human rights abuses with Tar Sands toxic pollution impacting downstream First Nations communities.
