CALGARY – An Alberta energy services company says its management accepts full responsibility for a decal the business distributed bearing its logo beneath a sexually suggestive cartoon appearing to depict 17-year-old Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg.
The image unleashed a torrent of outrage after it began circulating online Wednesday. It prompted condemnations from Alberta Premier Jason Kenney, provincial cabinet ministers and members of the House of Commons. — RuchiAngrish March 1, 2020“We are taking action to condemn this image and its publication and are committed to recovering and destroying the decals we distributed,” X-Site’s statement read.
Michelle Narang of Rocky Mountain House, Alta., said last week that a friend sent her a picture of the decal and told her they were being handed out at job sites.Narang said she called Sparrow on Wednesday and he told her he was aware of the stickers being distributed and that he stood by them. Narang said Sparrow told her: “She is not a child. She is 17.”“It’s not from X-Site or any employee. Someone has done this. That’s all I know,” he told the radio station.
Alberta: Canada’s Florida.
Ridiculous.
I wonder if the same people flipping out over a cartoon, which is inappropriate, flipped out over illegal rail blockades causing tens of millions of real damage to farmers, businesses, our economy, commuters. Probably not.
Point of order: 'we apologize for the hurt we *may* have caused' isn't an apology.
Prediction: when we finally hear her unfiltered life story, it’ll sound a lot like Macaulay Culkin’s
Excellent news. Greta should be allowed to spread panic and hysteria, to pander to climate hysterics and greenie morons around the world without any interference of any kind. Let Greta lie, cheat and fund raise in GreenPeace peace.
Inexcusable really. I expect that from liberals, but not from normal people.
All the work the resource industry in Alberta has done can be nullified by the actions of this company.
The image was revolting and yet the manager's response was 'She is not a child. She is 17.' I'm sure the company is looking to reduce its workforce. I see a good place to start.
The media should do a better job investigating and reporting on the Soros led, supported and paid activists destroying Canadas Energy industry, as well as the contributions going into the Trudeau Foundation from Soros led Foundations such as The Tides Foundation. Corruptgovt
Too late rednecks...
Eat it
Lol who cares
Children of the Climate Corn 🌽🤪 LOL ClimatePsychoCircus 🤡
Charges should be laid & those employees fired
First you said she’s 17 so not a child. Then said you didn’t do it, someone else did & now you’re committed to “recovering and destroying decals you handed out”? So you did know about them and were complicit. It may not be illegal, but it is disgusting!
Feminist and other groups are probably getting ready to eat this company alive. That decal is the definition of outrageous. She is a child, Alberta. You sick sick thing.
However Great Thunberg not apologizing for being a deliberate fraud funded and directed by arch-Globalists George Soros and Bill Gates! Search online-'What Do You Think Of Greta Thunberg's Plastic Garbage Filled Tesla?'
That's a great move by Alberta.

Greta Thunberg responds to graphic decal bearing Alta. oilfield company logoClimate activist Greta Thunberg has responded to a graphic decal which appears to use the 17-year-old Swede’s likeness. 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. Ignorant girl should still be in school. 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.
