canadian big business: wood and oil
A few days ago, I walked around the town of Banff and took pictures of infrastructure. I didn’t get a chance to write about it, but I wanted to record some of the interesting things I noticed before I forgot. Or I guess maybe only one thing that I remember: what was on the train. It’s interesting to notice that the trains here carry a lot of wood (both lumber and plywood) and un-odorized liquid propane gas.
Investigating further, one finds out Alberta is actually Canada’s oil powerhouse with the oil sands. There are even a ton of direct flights from Calgary to Dallas. Wood, I would guess. But oil? Who knew Canada was rich with oil? I assume things are going to change between the US and Canada (politically) pretty soon…
More if I remember what I forgot…
