Alberta’s three-year plan to spend almost $400 million to build up the booming oilsands region drew praise today from the president and CEO of petroleum giant Shell Canada.
During a stop at the University of Calgary, Clive Mather said new infrastructure in rapidly-growing Fort McMurray is critical to develop a resource which could potentially be the world’s biggest reserve of oil.
“The eyes of the world are upon us and we have to do it right,” he said.
“If you look forward over the next 10, 20, 30 years, what we’re going to see is one of the biggest projects in the whole world — we are literally going to see tens of thousands of construction workers, and on the back of that, a lot of long-term jobs.”
The province will spend $45 million for land to build 300 affordable housing units in Fort McMurray, while roughly $200 million is earmarked for three new clinics to relieve a backlog of patients.
About $100 billion worth of oilsands projects are in the works in northern Alberta.
Mathers added Shell has invested heavily in the oilsands, and projected the company’s eventual output from the region at 770,000 barrels per day.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
