FILM: Given that the world's stash of oil is finite (and some say nearing depletion), and that mining oil is proven to be hazardous to the environment, the production of oil in Alberta is a hot-button issue among activists and economists alike. Tonight, Olivia Chow will be hosting a screening of the 2009 documentary, H2Oil, followed by a discussion with H2Oil Director Shannon Walsh, Indigenous Environmental Network activist Clayton Thomas-Muller, and HERO Project advocate David Booz. They will be discussing the environmental impact of oil sands development in Alberta, among other issues surrounding oil production in Canada. Bloor Cinema (506 Bloor Street West), 7 p.m., FREE (reserve tickets by emailing Chowo1c@parl.gc.ca or by calling 416-533-2710).
