This is a chapter within the book, Extraction!: Comix Reportage, edited by Frédéric Dubois, Marc Tessier and David Widgington, and published in 2003 by Cumulus Press that discusses the dirtier sides of the Alberta Tar Sands:
Take 4 journalists. Send them on assignment to each investigate a mining project by a Canadian company in 4 extractive sectors: GOLD, BAUXITE, URANIUM and OIL. Have the reportages converted into scripts destined for graphic interpretation. Give the scripts to 4 award-winning comix artists to illustrate and EXTRACTION! is the result. Comix journalism will never be the same! This chapter is all about Oil extraction in the tar sands region of Northern Alberta, Canada.
