Summary

Musician Corb Lund joins ranchers in Calgary for a Water Not Coal petition rally, performing an anthem for the cause. The campaign aims to halt new coal mining operations in Alberta, focusing on protecting the Eastern Slopes of the Rockies from mining. Lund emphasizes the threat of water contamination and scarcity posed by coal mining, as water used in the process would impact drinking and agricultural water supplies. Despite skepticism about government responsiveness, Lund and the ranchers remain committed to pushing for permanent legislation to stop coal mining in the region.
