The orphan wells trace back to a tangled web of foreign investors, a company based in the British Virgin Islands and a last-ditch effort to sell to a Chinese company for $22M

They do this literally every time and then government just goes and says, no.problem sir, thank you sir. Canada can be a real joke sometimes. Are you aware those are the resources that belong to Canadians, and you sell them for pennies on the dollar and clean up for them too, at our expense I might add.
You conveniently forget that resource extraction is a provincial jurisdiction.
And how does that counter anything in my statement?
You said Canada was a joke for something that Alberta has control over.
It’s still a true statement. I’m Canadian, and we are shit with our resource management
You’re right but this is an Albertan problem not a Canadian problem.
Canada could have nationalized their oil like Norway did. Instead they did… this bullshit.
Again, Canada still has a problem managing their resources across the board. This issue is Alberta’s, but the statement still holds water
