A mural of teenage climate activist Greta Thunberg has been defaced with pro-oil and derogatory messages days after it was created.
However, on Sunday, as a journalist was filming the portrait, a man approached the wall and began to spray paint a message across her face.Explaining he had decided to “deal with it” as soon as he saw photos of the mural on social media, the man reportedly said: “This is Alberta. This is oil country. My father has worked in the oil industry.
