IF that is true and IF industry has made their money back then we are going to get lots of revenue from the Oilsands. As the only revenue to date has been from the indirect economic activity and the token royalty.

IF they are lucky, they might get enough Oilsands revenue to offset the huge declines in Natural Gas royalties.
But probably not.
