Coal Revival: RM of Estevan Reeve Jason LeBlanc gave a speech in the snow on Parliament hill in support of coal, now it has been saved
“We are over the top happy. The reason I say that is because the RM has been a strong advocate and been really pushing hard for the provincial government to get control of SaskPower, and they’re now taking a leadership role in common sense practice.” – Jason LeBlanc
Regina Refinery at 90 and Devine’s Upgraders, Part 6: Were the Lloydminster and Regina upgraders enormous money losers, or huge successes? The conclusion
For all the political strife over cost overruns of the two projects as they were built, and their initial struggles, the added provincial royalties in the 21st century made up for that in spades. And the further investment in northwest Saskatchewan’s heavy oil patch has far outstripped the money spent on the Bi-Provincial Upgrader, even when you adjust for inflation.
Coal Revival: “I’m going to stay,” one coal worker told IBEW
“I had a conversation with a member, and he told me he had the best sleep in years. That was a highlight for me,” said Hoste. “There’s lots of relief.”
Regina Refinery at 90 and Devine’s Upgraders, Part 5: Were the Regina and Lloydminster upgraders worth it? The two upgraders’ massive impact on provincial revenue
“Any reasonable entrepreneur in North America, if they had these resources, they would have done the same thing. Now, you had to be very determined about it, because it wasn’t easy. And you had the cyclical (nature) to deal with, but a lot of good entrepreneurs and business people, they know cycles. I would say it certainly contributed significantly to Saskatchewan, and it’s not going to change.” – Grant Devine
Regina Refinery at 90 and Devine’s Upgraders, Part 4: Regina NewGrade Upgrader, now part of FCL, has processed 16 million barrels of heavy oil per year for 30 years
“Because of the upgrader, approximately, 40 per cent of our feedstock comes from Saskatchewan heavy oil.”
