I think they are looking at what FDR did during the Great Depression, not what Mackenzie King did , or more to point didn't. We will be paying for this for years to come there is no doubt. Oil patch: They had already bought a pipeline and were pushing it ahead as fast as the courts would allow. If they had refined the oil in Alberta, , they wouldn't have had that problem. But that is in the past.. Tar sands oil , WCS, was trading at - $3.81 when I checked this morning, Ouch. It costs over $20 to make it. WCS prices are complicated, but that still way below cost. TECK pulled out of a tar sands project. I worked for a contractor working for TECK, those old placer miners were hard nosed with very sharp pencils. If they thought there was no future in tar sands, I would question putting money into it. We have to as Canadians find ways to keep food on the table and roofs over the heads. Stay safe
