Read your articles about Royal Dutch Shell. It makes me sick what they can get away with.
I am going to tell you what happened to myself and my family.
We were caretaking a ranch near Tumbler Ridge, BC about six years ago. We were looking after their horses and ours. We never received payment for this.
Unknown to us, Shell Oil was drilling a well 3 km across country from us.
When they started to flare the well, something went wrong. We got hurt from this. The spruce trees had golden patches on them, the leaves on the cottonwood turned upside down, the game left or died. Four of our horses died over time from this and we have one that is still wheezing from it. I have 30% lungs left, my husband and daughter 50% left. Our truck we had at the time, rusted out on one side.
