Greenpeace has finished their blockade demonstration at Shell’s Muskeg River oilsands mine north of Fort McMurray in the Tar Sands (Oil Sands) of Alberta, but not without raising international concern for the activities undertaken far out of the eye of the general public.
Perhaps this protest was timed to coincide with the Toronto International Film Festival, where they held the premier of the film (by Greenpeace) called Petropolis to garner more coverage of the environmental disaster in the midst of the Boreal forest of the North.
At the Petropolis site you can view photos and a trailer of the movie, which is predominantly of footage of the landscape taken from helicopters.
