Never mind, I just did your research for you. You'll notice that tourism is right up there in the top four economic drivers in B.C. One bitumen spill could wipe out more than 100,000 jobs.

While you're doing your research, could you come up with a statistical probability of that type of spill actually occurring?

What did you expect from that site? Even if it was up to date, and not quoting numbers from 2012 and 2013, they would try to spin it in their favour. Try a site that's not biased.
