In Ethical Oil, best-selling author Ezra Levant turns his attention to the ethical cost of our addiction to oil. While many North Americans may be aware of the financial and environmental price we pay for a gallon of gas or a barrel of oil, Levant argues that it is time we consider ethical factors as well. With his trademark candor, Levant asks hard-hitting questions: With the oil sands at our disposal, is it ethically responsible to import our oil from the Sudan, Russia, and Mexico? How should we weigh carbon emissions with human rights violations in Saudi Arabia? And assuming that we can't live without oil, can the development of energy be made more environmentally sustainable? All guests will receive a signed copy of this timely and provocative new book, which is sure to spark debate. This presentation is brought to you by the National Citizen’s Coalition which is Canada's largest non-partisan organization for the defence and promotion of free enterprise, free speech and government that is accountable to its taxpayers.  The National Citizen’s Coalition.  More freedom through less government.
