    Great! Let’s sell this off to multinationals ASAP so we can accelerate pillaging the land without consultation, outsource the jobs and ensure the fewest Canadians benefit from the windfall.

      Ah! Someone who’s familiar with Alberta oil & gas extraction.

      So extract all the value and give it to rich ppl while leaving everyone else to clean up the mess left behind?

        This isn’t gold. The value comes from the extraction part. That’s the really expensive and dirty part. It’s like salt in the ocean: insanely abundant but prohibitively expensive to extract.
