Listen to this half-hour interview of Damien Gillis on Opposition Radio, an Ontario-based online radio program. Hosts Mike and Tony discuss with Damien the recent revelation that the Harper Goverment has been working with the oil lobby on a coordinated PR strategy to promote the Alberta Tar Sands. The three also delve into recent pipeline politics in BC and the “jobs” myth around the proposed Enbridge pipeline, discussing a recent story by Damien on the drive to import American and Chinese labour to build the pipeline and expand Tar Sands operations, and how that flies in the face of the Harper Government’s contention these developments are good for the Canadian economy. (30 min – recorded July 31, 2012)

No ethical oil in the world. Every country with oil in its borders is subject to govs and regimes whims. Not one country on Earth has made people its priority where resource rape was the objective. Our waters and lands, plus every living thing is collateral damage. That ethical oil puppet has annoyed me with her lies. She will lie and lie some more, cause her annoying voice is being paid to do so….
Has Damien got the radio pipes or what, eh? Good job.
