Im not a Notley hater though, I just think some of the mistakes are from inexperience. WRP leader reminds me of William H Macy, more so from Fargo than any other movies. In other words, I don't trust him at all.
The user peanut really explained it best in a different thread, but paraphrasing her explanation is that basically our Oil industry has to swallow all of the shipping costs because we're moving product from a landlocked province to market.

Over time and production that cost adds up. When things were doing well you dont care too much about a few bucks here and there but when things get tight you've got to reduce the costs.
