Etzion, D., Avidan, M., Franks, K., Ruderman, F., and Gehman, J. (2016) The Effectiveness of Fracking Disclosure Regimes in Canada. Prepared for SSHRC’s Imagining Canada’s Future initiative (27 pages).
In this report, we provide an analysis of existing disclosure regimes in the four Canadian provinces where fracking is actively taking place: Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba and Saskatchewan. We assess the effectiveness of these disclosure practices, benchmarked against current theoretical and empirical scientific knowledge.
