Following new legislation that could lead to legal action for 'greenwashing', Canadian oil sands producers have stopped publicly discussing their emission-cutting activities. This silence has sparked concern among climate activists who argue for further reductions.

'If we want to be leaders in that sector, we're going to need to get projects like this across the finish line,' he added.
