You can't use double quotes with strings - use single ones, i.e.
WHERE station_name = 'golden mile_Regina'
By the way, are you sure of spelling & letter size? Is it really mixed case, with underscores? Just asking.
Furthermore, you're ordering by DATE - that won't work either, you can't use DATE as a column name (unless you enclose it into double quotes, but I certainly wouldn't recommend that). Have a look at the following example (stupid, yes - setting date to be a number, but I used it just to emphasize that DATE can't be used as a column name):
SQL> create table test (date number);
create table test (date number)
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: : invalid identifier
Once you fix that, you'll get unexpected result as there are 4 tables in the FROM clause, but they aren't joined with one another, so that will be a nice Cartesian product.
