YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Imperial Oil plans to start marketing empty lots in Calgary's Lynnview Ridge area for redevelopment. The company operated a refinery in the area for about 50 years, until the 1970s. The site was then a residential subdivision, but hundreds of Calgarians had to move in the early 2000s after lead contamination was discovered. Now, Imperial says it wants to return the land to productive use.
