We investigate the message contained in the banner hung from the Calgary Tower by Greenpeace Aug 3

Program Title: Terra Informa 7-49: Separate oil and state - what does it mean?
Description: Last week Greenpeace Activists draped a banner from the top of the iconic Calgary Tower. The banner read "Separate Oil and State" and dominated the Calgary skyline for over half an hour. Police eventually arrested and charged nine activists. Today on Terra Informa, we investigate what this statement by Greenpeace means and whether it holds any validity. We interview Greenpeace campaign organizer Melina Laboucan-Massimo. We also interview Darren Barter, a spokesman for the Energy Resources Conservation Board, which is responsible for developing and enforcing oil and gas regulation in Alberta. Finally, we interview Jason Unger from Edmonton's Environmental Law Centre.

Host(s): Brett Tegart
Featured Speakers/Guests: Melina Laboucan-Massimo - Greenpeace campaign organizer, Darren Barter - ECRB spokesman, Jason Unger - Lawyer with Edmonton's Environmental Law Centre
