Albertans react to Desmond Tutu's visit to oilsands

From CBC- (with video)


Anglican archbishop Desmond Tutu sparked controversy across the province during his visit to Fort McMurray.

Tutu, who won the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in the fight against apartheid in South Africa, has taken strong stands on climate change and against projects such as the Keystone XL pipeline. 


"The fact that this filth is being created now, when the link between carbon emissions and global warming is so obvious, reflects negligence and greed," Tutu told more than 200 people at a conference in Fort McMurray Saturday.

His comments have prompted many Albertans to voice their own opinion on the matter.
