People living in Fort Chipewyan and the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation who are worried about two tailings pond leaks at Kearl got the chance Wednesday night to speak directly to representatives of Imperial Oil. Residents told the oil company executives they’re angry and worried about their drinking water. As Slav Kornik reports, the First Nation’s chief says the meeting did not ease many concerns.
