Abstract
- The article looks at Canada's oil industry as of 2013, focusing on petroleum production from the tar sands in Alberta, Canada. The author recounts a visit to Fort McMurray, Alberta, and to tar sands facilities in the surrounding area. Topics include the volume of Canada's oil reserves, the jobs and economic expansion associated with oil production in Alberta, and environmentalist opposition to that production and to the proposed Keystone pipeline. Global warming is discussed.
