Obviously $$$$, but, there's gotta be some resources in Alberta that could spare/re-sell it.
Our sites are 650km away, it would be completely unfeasible. Each truck would take 2 days to haul one load there and back. $400 in fuel each direction, plus the cost of the truck and driver. We typically don't have a bunch of material stockpiled, we prefer on time delivery if possible.
