I am having a difficult time finding out anything about this, other than what I already read on Avaaz. I have posted links to this poll on several Albertan news agency sites on Facebook to report the story, but have no idea whether this will result in any action.
Do you have any further references, stories, contacts, etc.. that can help spread this issue to the public?
Thank you,
Dana

Here is an open letter to the government from CPAWS
I would go to the non-profit environmental sectors.
Here in BC we have The Nature Trust of BC, The Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation.
They may be able to provide you with information, connections or resources, and affiliates in Alberta.
It looks like there is a local office for the Canadian “The Nature Conservancy of Canada” for Alberta and the North.
I haven’t seen any stellar environmental promotion or policy from Harper… sadly speaking. They are a national company and I would say are duty-bound to provide information in their hands. worse case scenario.
More!
Ecojustice (formerly Sierra Legal Defense Fund)
Good site. Again there is nothing directly on the site. Contacting the staff directly may give you some answers.
I have posted on Twitter… and will do so again!
Thanks for writing. Vivian
