It won't. Any talk of any sorts of investment in anything besides Oil seems to get shot down immediately, especially if that comes at cost to the O&G industry...

But we can hope...
Just as a thought, what do you think the actual contribution of O&G to the Alberta economy is? (in terms of percentage of total GDP)

As a comparison, what do you think a highly diversified province actually looks like? ie. Do you think Ontario or BC or another province has a better model that Alberta should follow?
