Are you living in a ToxiCity?

Being Canadian I am close to this issue even though it is way out in Alberta. The first time I began to see the ugly side of this issue was when I came across a site called VBS.tv.
They have made a 15 part video series in 2-5 minute segments. Easy to watch and very informative to the issue that has surprisingly remained hidden for the most part.
I first noticed it about six months ago, but came across an old bookmark and felt inspired to share this unique site, with all who will listen. VBS goes through issues such as the environmental aspect of finding and getting the oil out of the sands. They show how life is for people coming to make the big bucks in Ft. McMurray and how they affect the indigenous people and their way of life. Also shown is the way they clear areas and cut down trees in large masses. The host talks with political figures from the areas past, who have some interesting words for Al Gore.
So for all this and more including two more specials including Brooklyn and West Virginia CLICK HERE! and come back here and feel free to comment and make your thoughts heard.
