I can assure you it makes a fuck tonne of money that is squandered on process. I’ve worked for the feds and I always hear the “government efficiency” jokes from my coworkers. I always make a point to tell them how much faster the government processes were at finalizing similar initatives compared to anything I’ve seen in industry. They usually don’t believe me but it’s true. This is at 1 engineering firm, 1 survey firm and various midstream / upstream operators. Calgary thinks its gods gift to productivity but they exist in a bubble when compared to the competitive nature of Ontario firms for other induatries, especially when you compare technology utilization.
Haha…hahahahahha…hahahha efficient. Buddy I work in oil and gas, it’s not efficient.
Its worker productivity and margins, oil and gas is very efficient relative to manufacturing or farming. Look at transfer payments.
Margins are only high when you externalize so much of the costs to the public and state.
Well Alberta doesn’t even pay a PST, I can’t see how that can be the case.
