Albertans' Perceptions of Oilsands Development Poll

Part 2: Environmental Issues

The Pembina Institute commissioned Probe Research Inc. to conduct a study to gauge public attitudes towards the environmental and economic impacts of oilsands development in Alberta and to identify the roles and responsibilities of the public and private sectors involved in oilsands development.

The poll results showed that an overwhelming majority of Albertans believe the government and industry should do more to protect the environment in the face of oilsands developments in northeastern Alberta.
