Its been around for years, Alberta has been taking oil in kind for oil royalties. BRIK basically just extends that to bitumen production since they've got the NWR Upgrader deal in place, they should be able make a couple extra scheckles selling refined products rather than trying to sell Dilbit.
Its basically a win-win because they can always just sell the dilbit and end up close to where they would have been had they just taken the cash.
