From Leyland Cecco's 3-15-21 GUARDIAN article entitled "Canadian Lobbyists Attack Netflix Children's Film for 'Anti-oil Propaganda'":
The animated film Bigfoot Family has come under fire in Canada – but not because of its stilted dialogue or confusing plot.
Instead,
a government-funded lobbying group has targeted the movie – a fantasy
epic featuring a human family whose father is Bigfoot – on the grounds
that it “peddles lies” about the oil and gas industry.
The Netflix film, panned by critics, centres on an energy company’s nefarious scheme to detonate a bomb in a pristine Alaska valley to flood it with crude oil.
Although the film is set in the US, the Canadian Energy Centre, funded by the province of Alberta, has launched a campaign against the movie, which it says “brainwashes” children with “anti-oil and gas propaganda”.
