That has no shame or concept of morality.

this is a guy that joked that he'd have to wear a bullet proof vest when he went to Lac Megantic- and that was two days after the derailment.

And the public shaming won't work. If it pays, that's as good as an admission of liability.

How easy it would be to lay the blame for the tragedy in Lac-Mégantic on the engineer who ran the train. But the real responsibility lies with the governments on both sides of the border who have deregulated their transport sectors, gutted freshwater protections and promoted the spectacular growth and transport of new and unsustainable fossil fuels.

Starting back in the 1970s, the US government deregulated rail transport, allowing deep staff reductions, the removal of brakemen from trains and lower safety standards for shipping hazardous materials. Canadian governments followed suit and allowed the railways to self-regulate safety standards and continue to ship oil in the older, accident-prone tanker cars of the kind that crashed into Lac-Mégantic.

Just last year, Transport Canada gave Montreal, Maine and Atlantic Railways the green light to run each train with just one engineer, which explains how one man came to be in charge of 72 cars and five locomotives carrying combustible energy through inhabited communities.

The Harper government, meanwhile, has gutted environmental regulation and freshwater protection in order to speed up the development of the Alberta tar sands

What do they have him pissing in a bottle all day?

It's a U.S. Company. I'm not sure how the Canadian government could enforce that.

Take the assets in Canada. then go to US courts. Or file initially in US.

t might take weeks before the extent of the damage from the July 6 train derailment in Lac-Mégantic is known, but 16 days after a train carrying crude oil crashed into the heart of Lac-Mégantic, the provincial government has revealed just how much oil appears to have been spilled.

There were 7.2 million litres of light crude oil aboard the ill-fated Montreal Main & Atlantic Railway train, but Quebec’s Department of Sustainable Development, Environment and Parks says about 5.63 million litres were released into the air, water and soil during the derailment.

Of the 72 tankers, which were carrying 100,000 litres each, only nine withstood the impact. Twenty tankers were completely emptied, and an additional 43 — with an estimated 670,000 residual litres of crude oil among them — were drained and moved in the cleanup efforts following the deadly explosion.

Earlier reports indicate it took first responders roughly 72 hours after the crash to plug the spilling crude and minimize damage to the nearby Chaudière River, which has its source in Lac Mégantic. Using a dam between the lake and the river, as well as a system of downstream dikes, cleanup crews slowed the flow of contaminated water and were able to pump it out.

My wife and I used to enjoy traveling to other countries. Now I would be too embarrassed to go outside of the US. We have the Attorney General of the US having to promise, in writing, that we won't seek the death penalty and won't torture one of our citizens if extradited (to Russia, no less!). We have state governments passing blatantly unconstitutional laws to disenfranchise minorities, and take constitutional rights away from women. We have foreign countries 'outsourcing' their jobs to the US because prison labor is so cheap (even cheaper than locating factories in Mexico!). We have a federal government that is so consumed at the thought of a black man in the White House that it is even threatening to shut down the government and let the country go bankrupt rather than negotiate with the President. I could go on, but I would feel too ashamed to show my face in Mexico, or Canada, or anywhere in Europe.

When I hear someone singing about 'Proud to be an American, because at least I know I'm free' I want to puke.

a Rail Road has. Probably about the same as a fertilizer company.

along with all those who made this accident possible.

Regulations are mandatory!!

Until he's in the hands of the Mounties. He has a new toothbrush in the inside pocket of his suitcoat, even now.
