This week Greenpeace launched their second disruption action on Tar Sands operations. Last week we reported on the first assault in which 20 American, Canadian and French activists broke into Shell Canada’s Albian Muskeg River oilsands mine north of Fort McMurray and successfully shut down production for 6 hours.
This week their target was Suncor.
As of the night before broadcast, lead Greenpeace Canada officials Bruce Cox and Jessica Wilson were still in custody. We still managed to reach spokesperson Mike Hudema in Edmonton.
