Canada oil firm confirms 1,600 bird deaths
The ducks died after becoming coated with the residual oil floating on the water surface.
The company has been charged with violating the Migratory Birds Convention Act and the Alberta Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act.
The company announced Tuesday a series of measures to boost its waterfowl protection program, including sound cannons, monitoring staff, scarecrows and effigies, and a radar-based system to research migration patterns.
