After the gov got caught trying to remove park’s protective status and sell off our parks, they used our tax dollars to create a website that told us we didn’t see what we saw... now they’re doing the same thing with coal mining.

Our concern has never been with Category 1 land that has duplicate protective status. Our concern is with Category 2 land that was protected from Strip Mining under Lougheed’s Coal Policy.
Removing the Coal Policy removed a blanket ban where only limited exploration under strict control was allowed, and strip mining would not normally be considered on cat 2 land. It also banned exploration or development activities in local areas of high environmental sensitivity.
