You are invited to join us for a night of dialogue about the future of Saskatchewan Oil Sands Industry. National Speakers form both sides of the issue will help us understand the complex and timely topic of the Tar Sands and its role in Saskatchewan. Dr. Carolyn Preston will speak in favour of the Tar Sands as an energy source and Andrew Nikiforuk will speak against expansion of the industry without national targets for renewable energy, oil revenue reform and climate change action. The Tar Sands development tin Saskatchewan will have far reaching implications into all of our lives. Com learn the facts and form your own opinion.

The debate will be a moderated presentation/rebuttal style showdown of the facts followed by a question and answer period.
