Local Tar Sands Discussions (Dominion issue in Oct)

Description:	
We're organizing discussions about the tar sands across Canada. This is 
the place to get involved, or stay tuned for events in your city or

The Dominion's special issue on the tar sands (out in mid October) will 
thoroughly examine the social and environmental implications of the 
largest industrial project in human history: the tar sands of northern 
Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Some of the topics that will be covered:

• Pipelines
• Water
• The north
• Indigenous rights and title to land
• Climate change and emissions
• Gendered impacts of rapid growth
• Labour rights and migrant workers' rights
• Use of public land
• Corporate power and social movements
