-----------------------------------------------------------


 
The incident came as activists and indigenous groups in the western
Canadian province of Alberta wrapped up a two-day "Tar Sands Healing
Walk." Participants staged an eight mile-march and healing ceremony to
acknowledge the damage of tar sands oil mining on the land and on local
communities.
