Canadian lobbyists attack Netflix children's film for 'anti-oil propaganda'

Oh yeah, it’s “libruls bad” alright. And as for those nasty, nasty environmentalists…

Protecting the environment is a well worn trope in kids art because children love animals. The stark difference between a recent Disney movie like say Pete’s Dragon where the dragon was both an elemental spirit of the forest as well as mother nature looking after a lost boy and that shite really shows how politics have changed children’s art. Pete’s Dragon is a remake. They would never have made a pro corporate children’s film until now. Imagine if in Mary Poppins the old Scrooge like bankers were the good guys?
