Program Title: Terra Informa - Season 9, Episode 5 - Keystone XL Protest in Ottawa & Alberta's Industrial Heartland
Description: Last week hundreds of protesters gathered on Parliament Hill to oppose the tar sands and the Keystone XL pipeline. Terra Informa spoke to one of the activists during the protest to get a first hand report and learn why so many people were willing to risk arrest. We take a look at biomonitoring, one of the most popular approaches to ecosystem management and assessment in Canada. And we investigate the rapid development of the oil and gas industry in Alberta's Industrial Heartland.
