Frustrated by political flip-flops and loopholes, Lund distrusts the government’s promises, fearing mining will poison water and erode Alberta’s soul. While officials claim mining can be done responsibly, Lund sees it as a threat to millions. The government may even pair his petition with a separatism vote — a move he calls trivializing a critical environmental issue. Exhausted but determined, Lund and his army of volunteers are still pushing forward to protect the Eastern Slopes. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
