CALGARY, March 30, 2016 /CNW/ - AKITA Drilling Ltd. has
officially endorsed the Oil Respect campaign launched by the
Canadian Association of Oilwell Drilling Contactors on February 17, 2016.
"We fully endorse the Oil Respect campaign which is advocating a
fact-based discussion regarding sustainable oil and gas
development" declared Murray Roth.
"We're now encouraging our employees, past and present, to support
Oil Respect by signing the petitions asking for recognition of the
importance of the industry and to get pipelines built so that we
can compete on a level playing field against foreign oil."
Oil Respect is about standing up for hardworking oil families
and businesses who are struggling. It's about respecting the facts,
the workers and the contributions this industry provides to all
Canadians.
Oil Respect will fight against the misinformation spread by
foreign celebrities, radical environmentalists and grandstanding
politicians at a time when tens of thousands of people are without
work and without hope for an immediate recovery. It will demand
action by federal and provincial governments on pipelines, the
safest and most effective way to transport oil and gas
products.
Oil Respect is a national campaign to allow regular Canadians to
share their personal stories and demand respect for their
industry.
