Climate activist Greta Thunberg has responded to a graphic decal which appears to use the 17-year-old Swede’s likeness.

The decal surfaced in Alberta earlier in the week. The logo of an Alberta oilfield company, X-Site Energy Services, appears at the bottom of the sticker. The manager of the company did not return CTV Edmonton News’ request for comment.Alexandre Boulerice, NDP MP of Quebec's Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie constituency, asked the house on Friday to denounce the sticker.

Boulerice called the decal – which shows a pair of hands holding the braids of a female figure from behind, with "Greta" scrawled across the female's back – disgusting. An investigation by Alberta RCMP concluded the decal "does not meet the elements of child pornography. Nor does the decal depict a non-consensual act that would be a direct threat to the person."Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg speaks at a rally at the Alberta Legislature Building in Edmonton, on Friday, Oct. 18, 2019.

She’s still a political puppet and being coaxed by her parents. Meanwhile you have people like Boyan Slat actually physically doing things WITH results to better the planet, not just yelling at countries with low carbon footprints off a script.

She’s more Canadian than she knows.. I saw a beaver up north with teeth like hers...

It was a low-brow neanderthal move, that shows they are afraid of the power of the green movement. Bullying is passe! Intimidation, harassment, & threatening with bodily harm are illegal. The fact that the TV couldn't show the decal, deems it pornographic. All against a child!!

Well, not exactly a likeness of her. The image is vague enough that you can only assume it’s her, apart from her name, but no last name. Pretty sure the company sat with lawyers before press.don’t be so hyper sensitive.

So basically the RCMP says the picture is perfectly fine and acceptable. All I have to say is: Nice standard

Do more on affordable housing...shit it too expensive to live..a townhouse is $1295..not worth it..a 2 bedroom same place is $1195..plus utilities to buy a house while on disability is too hard to get

That energy company is a disgrace to Canada. Same goes to every ignorant fool that thinks that decal was ok.

she thinks she is winning our way back to 1902

Shame on them for doing this

OMFG. Some 20 something roughneck who does graphic design makes up a sticker for his hard hat and the world goes......literally shaking. GMAFB arggggg

You can dislike Greta or even hate her if you want but joking about rape/minor sex is disgusting and wrong. Wtf is wrong with some ppl

That’s why she was just screaming the other day how know one was listening to her. Lol. She’s such a high school dropout.

Who cares .

It was in bad taste. How about the news cover some of the daily Antifa violence that happens?

Another Soros finger puppet!!!

Who cares. Go back to your indoctrinated school system and try to learn the truth.

Y’all know that Alta does not exist

arr, how dare ye!

That's what I sill dont get. They hammer us and our economy over climate change but until the big emitters do more the how will we get ahead. We cut , we suffer and the big emitters add more pollution! Go figure. I'm sure Trudeau has a plan .......

She’s a saint.

I don't agree with this tactic. But I also do not agree with Greta. We have a small population here in Canada. India and China have over a billion citizens each. We could live spartan lives and half starve ourselves to death and it will not have an overall impact.

Ignorant girl should still be in school.

Seriously though, what kind of moron would make that sort of image? This isn’t about the political left or right; this is about low IQs. We might need to make Albertans take an extra grade in school. Ummm, if we still had funding for schools.
