Companies now bidding for oilsands rights in Sask. |
| Home | (CBC News) - In another sign Saskatchewan could someday have an Alberta-style oilsands industry, companies have started paying the province millions for the right to look for the oily material. On Thursday, the province said it held its first-ever public offering of oilsands rights as part of its August sale of petroleum and gas rights. The August sales for all oil and gas rights raised about $38 million for the provincial treasury. |
