Corb Lund speaks to members of the Canadian Club of Calgary during a luncheon at the Ranchman’s Club on Wednesday, Feb. 19, 2025. Lund, along with environmentalist Kevin Van Tighem and former Lethbridge mayor Chris Spearman, hosted a talk entitled Voices from the Eastern Slopes: The Argument Against Coal Mining.

Members of a group against a coal mine proposed in the Canadian Rockies denounced the project at a meeting in Calgary’s Beltline community.

A trio of speakers from Water For Food, a group that launched a petition against the Grassy Mountain coal mine, addressed around 70 members of the Canadian Club during a Wednesday luncheon.
