1...In a time oil has been seriously undervalued, yet the products of that oil have not, why do we still continue to be merchants of oil? $12B to pipeline companies could have been $12B to refineries, production plants, jobs. Instead of Oil merchants we could have been...2

10...where the buck stops. Is your company keeping resources in province or are they taking it out of province? Are they honouring free market principles, or are they buying up all their resource suppliers and manufacturers for themselves to set up as their own...11
