Still not even close to that. Firebag had what? 3500 people living on site? Given the schedules no more than 2/3 of that at one time.

Include the nearby camps and I still can't imagine you'd ever see more than 10k at one time at its height.

However it's still not 50k on location, that's how many jobs they assume it will create, and as pointed out that could be beyond just the direct labor.
