did not have a state-of-the-art monitoring system in place. “We are
convinced that the current activities could be transformed into a
system that will provide credible data for decisions – a system that
will allow us to know the current conditions and trends in the oil
sands ecosystem and encourage the necessary foresight to prevent a
compromised environment,” the report said. It recommended a robust
system administered by Environment Canada.
The provincial panel recommended 20 changes, including creating an
arms-length monitoring “commission” and making data publicly
available."
