  • OSRIN's Did You Know Series: the Collected Works
    OSRIN’s Did You Know Series: The Collected Works Oil Sands Research and Information Network School of Energy and the Environment University of Alberta December 2014 Oil Sands Research and Information Network The Oil Sands Research and Information Network (OSRIN) is a university-based, independent organization that compiles, interprets and analyses available knowledge about managing the environmental impacts to landscapes and water affected by oil sands mining and gets that knowledge into the hands of those who can use it to drive breakthrough improvements in regulations and practices. OSRIN is a project of the University of Alberta’s School of Energy and the Environment (SEE). OSRIN was launched with a start-up grant of $4.5 million from Alberta Environment and a $250,000 grant from the Canada School of Energy and Environment Ltd. OSRIN provides: Governments with the independent, objective, and credible information and analysis required to put appropriate regulatory and policy frameworks in place Media, opinion leaders and the general public with the facts about oil sands development, its environmental and social impacts, and landscape/water reclamation activities – so that public dialogue and policy is informed by solid evidence Industry with ready access to an integrated view of research that will help them make and execute environmental management plans – a view that crosses disciplines and organizational boundaries OSRIN recognizes that much research has been done in these areas by a variety of players over 40 years of oil sands development. OSRIN synthesizes this collective knowledge and presents it in a form that allows others to use it to solve pressing problems.

  • Canadian Newspaper Coverage of Oil Sands
    University of Alberta Canadian newspaper coverage of the Alberta oil sands: The intractability of neoliberalism by Laura Anne Way A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science ©Laura Anne Way Fall 2013 Edmonton, Alberta Permission is hereby granted to the University of Alberta Libraries to reproduce single copies of this thesis and to lend or sell such copies for private, scholarly or scientific research purposes only.

This dissertation is dedicated to my husband, Paul, whose support made it all possible. i Abstract This dissertation examines the relationship between Canadian newspapers, the development of Alberta’s oil sands, and neoliberalism. It uses both content and discourse analysis to analyze coverage of oil sands development in six English-Canadian newspapers between October 1, 2005 and October 31, 2007. During this period of contestation, a variety of actors were questioning the central tenets of the neoliberal policy frame governing oil sands development. Policy frames do change over time, as transformative discourses—which challenge the empirical and normative bases of an existing policy frame—gain broader acceptance and replace an existing frame.

  • Oilsands Development
    DISSENT IN RALPH KLEIN’S KINGDOM? Exploring oil sands discourses found in Alberta newspapers’ editorials Paper presented at the Canadian Political Science Association Conference June 2010, Montreal QC Laura Way Department of Political Science University of Alberta [email protected] Draft paper Please do not cite without author’s permission Dissent in Ralph Klein’s Kingdom Laura Way ABSTRACT From the outside, Alberta politics are commonly perceived as homogenous. This is most often attributed to the electoral dominance of the Conservative Party at both the provincial and federal levels. Nowhere is this “homogeneity” more evident than in how Albertans and their government’s view oil and gas development, and the oil sands in particular. Even today, three letters, NEP, can be used to stroke public sentiment against perceived government interference. However, this study challenges this perspective. It argues that a more nuanced view of Alberta conservatism and alternative viewpoints emerge when one examines the degree of diversity found within the portrayal of oil sands in three Alberta newspapers: the Fort McMurray Today, the Edmonton Journal, and the Calgary Herald. Each of these papers serves a community intricately linked to oil sands development — ground zero, the capital and service centre, and the head office respectively. During the study’s time period of October 1, 2005 to October 31, 2007, there were two public reviews about the future of oil sands development and a leadership race to replace Ralph Klein as leader of the Conservative party and Premier of Alberta. Because, the very nature of oil sands development was open for debate the media were presented with a newsworthy topic.
