Official Petition Question

What You’re Signing

The Government of Alberta shall prohibit through legislation all coal exploration and mining activities within the Eastern Slopes of Alberta’s Rocky Mountains, other than mines that are in actual production as of January 1, 2026. For clarity, this prohibition includes Northback Holdings’ Grassy Mountain Project and Valory Resources’ Blackstone Project as well as any projects to expand any producing mines.

The Cause

Why are we doing this?

Corb Lund — country singer and proud Albertan leading the Water Not Coal petition

Coal mining in Alberta's Rockies threatens our water.

Coal mines destroy the landscape, and release toxic chemicals into the air and water, which threatens fish, birds, wildlife, livestock and the water we drink.

This is why I started a Citizen Initiative Petition to put an end to all new coal mining in Alberta's Rocky Mountains.

— Corb Lund, proud Albertan
