Social Engineering: Oil Sands of Alberta Create Canadian Third World

As winter approaches, thousands of residents of Fort McMurray, this tiny beautiful village located at the pristine headwaters of the Royal Canadian Boreal Forests, have fled to the outskirts of town, where a large refugee camp has been set up by the African Knights of Columbus relief organization. James McPhee is a typical resident of this camp, which provides tents, food, and medical relief to beleagured residents. “I was a driver of large trucks, but there is no room in town because of all the oil barrels and sand,” he said, lying on a thin blanket on hard shale as the first cold winds of winter began to whip through the camp. Organizations across Canada have called for immediate action to releive what they say is an imminent disaster waiting to happen. “The geopolitical stability of the region, compounded by environmental problems such as mosquitos and cold, are setting us on a train ride down a steep mountain into an avalanche,” William G. Macy of the Knights said. “Much of the aid that reaches the town is taken by corrupt officials to pay for their extravagant pleasure palaces, and daily airflights to more reasonable southern climes,” he stated. “There is a vast shadow behind the sunny rays we are given to see through much of the news media. The willful ignorance of first world nations about their third worlds inside their borders is criminal,” Macy said. However, James McPhee is utterly resigned to his daily struggle to live in the camp. “I dont know about any of that, I just know im hungry and cold.”
