The World's Largest Ponzi Scheme

So, another week at CalgaryUrbanite, another revelation I have to share with everyone. Last week I mentioned how we are all driving the Oil Sands business whether we like developing them or not.  Well this week I drop an even bigger bombshell (We are entering the Fall sweeps season after all).  Forget the latest Ponzi-Scheme bust in Calgary, we are part of the biggest Ponzi scheme of all time.]]> Green Peace and the Oil Sands: Together At Last http://calgaryurbanite.com/post/green_peace_and_the_oil_sands http://calgaryurbanite.com/post/green_peace_and_the_oil_sands Sat, 19 Sep 2009 21:20:24 -0700 Derek McBurneysadsa

Green Peace and the Oil Sands: Together At Last

Hey, so guess what I did today? I dug up some bitumen in the Fort McMurray Oil Sands. I've done it a bunch of times actually.  I had surgery to remove a wisdom tooth yesterday morning and I still did it!  You know, now that I think about it, I haven't even been north of Edmonton yet I've still managed to do it! You've done it too. I don't even know you, but I know you've done it. Greenpeace went up to Fort Mac to protest Oil Sands development, and you know what? They've dug up bitumen too.]]>
