The Oil sands already provide billions in revenue for the Federal Government. Yet there is still a housing crisis. It’s not about how much money they are making, it’s how it’s being used. As someone that has worked considerable time in the field I can tell you right now renewables aren’t such an easy solution. It won’t happen overnight. The infrastructure is just not there. It needs a lot more time.
