Wow. All I said was that Eddy the Clown had a hand in it, not that he was the sole destructive force in this. I guarantee you that the company I work for would not be considering shutting in production just yet if it weren't for the royalty fiasco in this province. When our royalties nearly DOUBLE (~25% to ~47%) that has a direct impact on cash flow and ability to sustain a viable business. Couple that with a 70% decline in oil price and it is bad.
