I am of the opinion that that was the smartest and most correct thing he said during his brief time in power. And not relatively speaking...it was just outright smart and correct. I was and remain very disappointed in Albertans' reaction to that comment.

And therein lies the dilemma. But I don't see a role for government in managing that queue. You have to leave it up to the free market to sort itself out. We obviously haven't cracked that nut perfectly, but we took strides (some discussed above) such as:
-companies working together to stage projects
-modularization of oil sands assets into smaller investment chunks
-temporary foreign workers (ok, government played a roll in that one I guess so maybe there is a place for them in the solution)
