Some of this is a little too far out. If you're Canadian from the start you know Fort Mac always will has and been the biggest shit hole with the craziest cost of living. Move around Red Deer/Hanna area you're getting a comfy place $900/monthly + furnished. Even a $2000 shack out in the woods. The whole province isn't a shit hole. I guess it depends on who you ask to be apart of the filming.
Its obviously not about the whole province, its acknowledging the shit hole that the unsustainable, declining oil industry brings and there will probably be more places like this the more desperate we get.
billy janglenobber Wetaskiwin, 30 min from the Nisku indy park. Rents for a two bedroom start at around $650/mo. Wont last long though as rent is already sky high in some parts of town
Thank you for doing this. As a Canadian I have been very curious to know what is really going on. Vice has supported a lot of great documentaries, this is one of them.
I love how this guy reacted with shock and horror to the living conditions and the Nova Scotians god bless them are happy and appreciative for the job and think they have it good.
lol a politician saying not to trust another guy because the other guys is a politician, then saying gore isn't a real politician because he's an environmentalist and you can't be both, then turns around and says he himself has a environmentalist sticker on his front door and he's both, lol he cant even keep his fuckin story straight, guess that makes him more politician than environmentalist.
Ralph Klein. Best premier a province could ever wish for. He was a drunk business man who knew his shit. Not some bullshitting lawer out to fill his pockets. He actually gave a genuine fuck about the people. Peace to the Red Black and Green.
no one can deny the fact that the money in the tar sands is amazing, people gotta make money. at the same time no one can deny that it is short term wealth with serious long term repercussions. its another perfect example of how the north american world makes short term "quick money" decisions with short term fixes rather than thinking things out and making money in a smarter more sustainable fashion like they do in Europe.
Born and raised and witnesses most of this shit first hand. But the economy is great, and it benefits all Canadians and USA TOO!. These arent slaves working in saudi arabia, this is the Canadian oil patch!
If you are curious, work in the industry to see the other side of the equation. I find a lot of people complaining don't work in it, or understand how it works. I use to work in Vancouver at a Bank, before that Hewlett Packard. I then moved to working in the Oil and Gas industry as a Leashand, worked my way up to Derrickhand on a drilling rig/rigs. Now I'm on the Service side. I'm a fluid engineer/mudman and work on many different projects. I see first hand how disposal is cleanly done.
kurtilein3 Trashing... Trashing is destroying and then doing nothing about it. Do you live close to this area? If not, then it's people like you that's ignorant to what really takes place once the mining is completed. Do you own a vehicle, fly, take transit? If so, your just as much to blame for the problem as anyone else is. Everyone should give up their dependent lives on fossil fuels and these places will have to shutdown. Problem solved.
at least he understands that you cant be an environmentalist and a big time politition.. Klein was the greatest economic premier in the history of canada
I'm trying to wrap my head around the liberal position on this. Canadian oil is evil, so we should import our oil from other countries? How does that make sense?
Check Out The Project That Was Done At Syncrude in Fort Mc its called (SERP) Sulfur Emissions Reduction Program just finished in 2015 and put online now and there is a 2 year systems checks then ALL big oil company's in Canada will be required to have this, the Canadian Goverment Paid 1.7 Billion For SERP It Took 7-8 years to build its the first time ever done like this on this Scale and will reduce emmisions up to 60-70 percent and the pictures of the plant in 6 -9 years will have no smoke stacks pumping emissions out so our future is oil .
I work 7 in and 7 out, we fly out of camp any never once see Ft. Mac.. I love this job.. and the camp is awesome.. getting tired of this video, no need to go past 10 minutes..
jacko1541 and the company I work for PAYS me a camp allowance AND travel to the airport to catch my flight.. AND free food, weight room, gym, skating rink.. the oil company here treats me good..
that building manager/owner said he'd been in the business for a long time, and if he's able to provide a service like he is, he probably has made a lot of money, so the money he doesn't get from the renters, he probably gets back in the form of taxes. the same concept as donating a car versus selling it
This is one area of Alberta. Just check out the mountains and tell me this province is a wasteland. Maybe north is dirty but man the south has lots of open land, all green and stunning.
Easier said than done. The lifestyle grabs so many people and makes them break even or can even put them in debt. It's amazing. Gotta be very careful and have all your ducks in a row.
I don't believe they are outright condemning the oil sands projects in Alberta. Yes, the reporter went looking for the negative effects of these oil sands project in Canada. But you know, a little video and interview in the location that it is at goes a long way. It doesn't encourage me to we should stop this, it just makes me aware that it has the potential to get out of control without proper checks and balances. And the oil dependency talk is far outside the scope of Alberta oil sands.
A number of folks I know from the Alberta area said that the oil money Canada gets prevents their health care system from collapsing, and protects other welfare support systems in Canada..I'm just wondering how accurate that statement is?
Or how sustainable it is since oil prices keep going down, renewables are becoming popular, and tar sands are proving increasingly expensive to produce.
At the end of the day it really doesn't matter. If it does indeed support Canada's various welfare programs, what is more important, our welfare programs, or the well being of Alberta's, and the world's environment? That's something that is actually worth some austerity.
Oil sands currently affects the jobs of 112,000 people across Canada OUTSIDE the province of Alberta. The oil sands industry will pay an estimated $1.5 trillion in provincial ($302 billion) and federal ($574 billion) taxes and provincial royalties ($590 billion) over the next 25 years. In 2011 and 2012, oil sands companies contributed more than $20 million to aboriginal communities in the Wood Buffalo and Lac La Biche regions for school and youth programs, celebrations, cultural events, literacy projects and other community programs. I've been in Alberta for 25 years and have had the privilege of working up North for the last 5. Alberta is NOT a "world of poisoned water, polluted air, and rare cancer". I enjoy great air quality, don't know a single person with rare cancer, and truly enjoy Alberta's beautiful outdoors. I've never seen Fort Mac in my life but I do believe that it's fuckin ugly there. The fact is that the part of the province that is strip mined is tiny. Since 1967, 761 square km of borreal forrest have been disturbed by oil sands mining. This is an area smaller than New York, Berlin, or London. 0.2 % of Canada's boreal forest can be mined for oil. This land will be reclaimed once the reserves are depleted. Of the 169 billion barrels of oil sands reserves, only 34 million can be accessed through mining. The rest of these reserves will be drilled.
Stephen Prevost Oil sands contribute 8.7% of Canada's greenhouse gas emissions and 0.13% of the worlds. 8.7 sounds high but I have personally enjoyed many summers in Alberta's north east and can attest to the fact that there are much more beautiful parts to the province than the tiny fraction that is being mined.
For those Americans who do not know who Ralph Klein is, in Alberta he is famous for throwing pennies at a houseless man while drunk, and cutting social services while extending massive subsides to the petroleum industry. Rest in peace King Ralph.
"No I don't think that his motive is to save the world, I think that his motive is... he's a politician." "Are you an environmentalist or a politician?" The implied meaning of this question is just... awful.
No one says a word about the difference between the Oil Industry in Canada & that of Norway; where the oil owned by the Government, not the oil industry.
Wow they actually showed the trailer park and a depressed guy living in it to show the living conditions of the city. That is horrible. The MLS shows thousands of listings. People choose to live in the trailer park because it is cheaper than renting a room. PERIOD.
That man doing the "non profit" housing is a freaking saint. Can you imagine the millions of dollars he could be making? Kudo's to you sir. You're an inspiration. And in the greediest of all cities no less.
Typical student. I use to do computer engineering, worked in a bank, now work with energy companies to cut cost and figure out disposal issues. I do fluid engineering work. I didn't need to go to school to do this. But, if you are smart, you will stop thinking you know everything, and come out with an open mind and actually see how its done. Would you reather listen to a reporter that is guessing based on opinions, or come out and make your own?
says the man paying money for a piece of paper that says he is supposed to know something about something so he can be part of the money over people system. get over it mate, having a better life for you and people that depend on you is the highest priority in life for the 21st century.
Then I'm curious, honestly, how do we keep this disposal from affecting fish and other wildlife? It seemed like the rivers were rather polluted. The atmospheric affects are quite obvious too. I live in Kitchener and I can smell sulfur when it rains, and that's just with the cars and industry we have. The further north you go, the more sensitive the environment is. That said, I'd like to know what I'm missing here, because I know I don't have the whole picture here.
+Jakob Andersen . Read a book or paper man. So many other oil producing nations harm the environment in greater magnitudes. Check out "Ethical Oil." Whats another positive? We provide fair labor with no jeopardy towards children or unfair rights for women.
+Anthony Moore I don't think that saying "No women or children were harmed" makes a good side.....its a terrible thing for the environment. fair labour or not.
To expensive for solar. Get your head out of your ass. Everything needs oil and gas. How do you think groceries get to your local mall. I appreciate your trying to be green and help the environment, but putting your head in the sand in regards to the worlds energy needs is ridiculous.
+Jakob Andersen The good side is good work experience, The ability it provides for men and woman across this nation to provide for their families. Not to mention the countless social programs every province uses the money for from the handouts they get from the industry. I could go on, your computer is made of it that your typing on along with everything else in your house.
New Vice documentary idea: " Psychology of a TH-cam Commenter " . What makes them tick, and why do they let such unimportant things make them so passionately angry? Aren't there far more important things going on in the world?
This debt that my generation is facing is only being inflated by the desire to gain wealth at any cost. We want to survive and those survival instincts will drive us to what ever end that will put us above another.
theres a shit load of plastic in the moniter youre looking at. look around you, look at all the things made from plastic, its a bloody good material for everyday objects.
It sucks to see this video have such a negative side. My brother both work on the rigs, yes this is all true but the majority of the people seemed stoned out of their mind. You either go in smart or you're going in dumb... Keep it clean you come out clean, take one wrong turn you're fucked. All you need to do to succeed in the rigs is greed/patience/stamina and a good fucking goal.
exactly.... hence why i quit school started a cannabis association in barcelona and am building mah WEED (Worldwide Environmental Engineering and Defense) team to hire my own engineers and overgrow everything from the big oil and pharma to agriculture, alcohol and tobacco and of course the highest shiteating hypocrits of all... the educational system. real education has no system, real education literally is transcendence. power to the people!!!!!!!!!
Lol, you're joking, right? Greatest economic premier in the history of Canada? Tommy Douglas would be the greatest throughout Canada, Peter Lougheed within Alberta.
9:03 There is a street gang that is named Goomba? They better not encounter Mario or Luigi... or they will regret it dearly. ... But damn, some of these weapons just look like novelty stuff... And others are medieval styled weapons
Guys, we have suppressed technologies are 50 years ahead of our time. Is this a problem to any of you oil and gas lovers or is it all good in the hood?
Jai Jai WHY dirty up the environment so that we have to clean it back up when we could build cars that don't need fucking oil in the first place. There are alternatives you fossil fuel loving troglodyte cavemen. Relax, do some research, google it and welcome to the 21st century. once the oil jobs are gone in any town it becomes devastated like Detroit with its auto industry and so many others. Stop Building cars that utilize Oil as its source of power. Period. Exclamation Point!
Buddy saying that he makes 10000 $ a month made me think well holy fuck there is something wrong here.They should be taking pay cuts all the way down so they can put money into fixing this problem
A "balanced view"? What the fuck do you expect to hear? More from the oil exec or the ex Premier saying that we need oil? I'm not sure what the hell you find wrong with the story beyond the content. The journalist didn't spew the shit into the atmosphere or cut down 10% of the largest forest outside of the Amazon. There is no "good" side of this beyond us getting to gas up our cars and Canadians getting enough money to survive. Those points were covered... repeatedly.
i like looking at my plastic moniter, its my access portal to the wonders of the internet, which in my opinion is a good thing. thats what you mean by staring at your plastic screen right? i dont need to try to feel human, i am human and i can control my emotions and how i act accordingly. my parents didnt really take a part in my education, i was educated by the state and then later by myself through self study at university. im a geomorphologist and a civil engineer.
"I have faith in science," says Ralph Klein. Unfortunately, he is scientifically illiterate so he doesn't realize that all the scientists working for the Tar Sands are corrupt. I am a retired engineer so I know how corrupt is engineering. You simply don't get the job if you don't lie for your employer. . It is that way in most engineering jobs in Canada.
Again - what else could it be? It is a piece to expose what people don't know about how dirty the tar sands operations are - whatever label you want to give the journalists or the piece are inconsequential. There is no other side to this - it's fucking disgusting and is doing horrible things to the environment.
matter and mind is inherently linked. mind over matter is no more superior than matter over mind. its all ambiguous this idea of mind over matter, if you wanna ask me what i mean when i type matter over mind then why dont you ask? calling me a non human plastic blob is hurtful, a good human wouldnt do that to another human, animal, lump of coal, plastic or tree; its hurtful.
naw breaaaahh i am already somewhere.have you ever considered becoming a guidance couscellor at a high school? it'd be a real nice job,, you might have to stop referring to total strangers as your bros especially when using the term in what i perceive as an unclear and slightly sarcastic remark of encouragement. if you want to say something encouraging to one of your brothers (because i am your brother if we are both sons of god) say it with honour and politeness, por favor.

ralph klein is absolute gold. he gave this kid the interview of his life
lmao hes a fool and an idiot....He got mad to basic questions cuz hes scared....probably cant sleep at nite..
It’s funny seeing how that “conservative” thing is working out in Alberta nowadays with everything there failing and being wildly expensive.
@@KandiKlover like that’s any different from elsewhere in Canada 😂😂

Just because you were the Minister of Environment doesn't make you an environmentalist, Mr. Klein.

lol.. So nice to see a reporter that's so badly educated about a place. Glad to see it's a one sided documentary...
what would be the other side? that trashing our planet is awesome if its profitable?

Blackgold67 And if you use oil in any manner you should NEVER EVER EVER say anything critical about it, right? Riiiiight.
This place is a trashole and you’re a delusional shill.
at least he understands that you cant be an environmentalist and a big time politition.. Klein was the greatest economic premier in the history of canada
Canadian Arctic! Definitely from NYC. He's still technically closer to the US border than the top of Canada.
I'm trying to wrap my head around the liberal position on this. Canadian oil is evil, so we should import our oil from other countries? How does that make sense?
i could tell you a million other towns that are no different. it takes all sorts to make this world we live in.
i live in Alberta
Where do you live
Calgary is the 5th best to city to live in the world. Google it and go figure!
Check Out The Project That Was Done At Syncrude in Fort Mc its called (SERP) Sulfur Emissions Reduction Program just finished in 2015 and put online now and there is a 2 year systems checks then ALL big oil company's in Canada will be required to have this, the Canadian Goverment Paid 1.7 Billion For SERP It Took 7-8 years to build its the first time ever done like this on this Scale and will reduce emmisions up to 60-70 percent and the pictures of the plant in 6 -9 years will have no smoke stacks pumping emissions out so our future is oil .
+Jamie Burke Oh no, but that would make the oil sands look like a good thing.

There are alternatives you fossil fuel loving troglodyte cavemen. Relax, do some research, google it and welcome to the 21st century. once the oil jobs are gone in any town it becomes devastated like Detroit with its auto industry and so many others. Stop Building cars that utilize Oil as its source of power. Period. Exclamation Point!
Remember that time Klein went to the drop in centre in Calgary pissed out of his mind and threw change at the homeless?
It is extremely exaggerated.
Y O U K N O W ?
Buddy saying that he makes 10000 $ a month made me think well holy fuck there is something wrong here.They should be taking pay cuts all the way down so they can put money into fixing this problem
It's funny to talk global warming to a Canadian because to them it's a great idea. Their like "Global Warming? Good it's too fuckin' cold. Eh?"
A "balanced view"? What the fuck do you expect to hear? More from the oil exec or the ex Premier saying that we need oil?
I'm not sure what the hell you find wrong with the story beyond the content. The journalist didn't spew the shit into the atmosphere or cut down 10% of the largest forest outside of the Amazon.
There is no "good" side of this beyond us getting to gas up our cars and Canadians getting enough money to survive.
Those points were covered... repeatedly.
Paula Oyonoski is beautiful. I need to start reading Fort McMurray Today. :)
i know exactly where to get every one of those melee weapons at the police station
lol why did they go in the winter? alberta is nice and warm in the summer!
Sad it's all east coasters in the oil sands.
I agree.
i think he said Canadian arctic
i like looking at my plastic moniter, its my access portal to the wonders of the internet, which in my opinion is a good thing. thats what you mean by staring at your plastic screen right?
i dont need to try to feel human, i am human and i can control my emotions and how i act accordingly.
my parents didnt really take a part in my education, i was educated by the state and then later by myself through self study at university. im a geomorphologist and a civil engineer.
"I have faith in science," says Ralph Klein. Unfortunately, he is scientifically illiterate so he doesn't realize that all the scientists working for the Tar Sands are corrupt. I am a retired engineer so I know how corrupt is engineering. You simply don't get the job if you don't lie for your employer. . It is that way in most engineering jobs in Canada.
Again - what else could it be?
It is a piece to expose what people don't know about how dirty the tar sands operations are - whatever label you want to give the journalists or the piece are inconsequential.
There is no other side to this - it's fucking disgusting and is doing horrible things to the environment.
RIP Ralaph thanks for the 400$
A Newfie with grade 9 can make 100k a year if he can stay off blow
nice one vice, blur buddies face but not his license plate...
matter and mind is inherently linked. mind over matter is no more superior than matter over mind.
its all ambiguous this idea of mind over matter, if you wanna ask me what i mean when i type matter over mind then why dont you ask?
calling me a non human plastic blob is hurtful, a good human wouldnt do that to another human, animal, lump of coal, plastic or tree; its hurtful.
Uh, so far 90% of this is lies or misinformed bs....
This is a pile of shit. I love Oil Sands
if you love them so much why don`t you marry them then?
When I retire i'm going to grow marijuana down in Englishtown
400 dollars?
Growin marijuaner in englishtown!
Glad they showed how delusional Klein is... or was...
naw breaaaahh i am already somewhere.have you ever considered becoming a guidance couscellor at a high school? it'd be a real nice job,, you might have to stop referring to total strangers as your bros especially when using the term in what i perceive as an unclear and slightly sarcastic remark of encouragement. if you want to say something encouraging to one of your brothers (because i am your brother if we are both sons of god) say it with honour and politeness, por favor.
I wanna move their asap
fuckin hell man, when was that? Lowest I remember is maybe 83c/L, then again I'm only 19.
