"---Many have interpreted this restriction as a "de facto moratorium." BUT Nothing ir further from truth!" The establishment of a regulatory environment which will give control of all activities of exploration and drilling on the land is not for tomorrow unless Quebec did adopt emergency.

But as it has not been made, industry can continue to drill as often as deeply and as far into the basement as they want. Only the next operation, the fracturing will be reduced to scientific purposes.

So, in this clear exploration phase, ALL fracting is doing for scientific purposes!!

Even THE DEVOIR, an opposition to Govern paper, is clear on this interpretation of BAPE suggestions to the Govern.
