Hearings into energy 'game changer' begin in Quebec
MONTREAL — Environmental hearings begin in Quebec on Monday into the risks of tapping a 5,000-square-kilometre energy source one federal document calls an energy "game changer." The public hearings could be raucous given that tempers have already flared over Quebec's push to exploit natural gas reservoirs buried under the St. Lawrence River lowlands. The proposed endeavour to unlock gas from the shale has ignited boisterous protests in recent weeks and made international headlines, including an article in The Economist magazine.
