No, it's about the price. Right now, Alberta is producing too much compared to its pipeline capacity, and some of its customers have had to stop production, so they're flooding more oil into the limited markets they have (or selling future oil and putting it in storage, which also drives down prices and is costly), while the world price is much higher than the price that they're able to get for their own product.

Open new markets -> sell that oil closer to world price -> sell less oil to the markets you're currently flooding -> raise that price as well.

It actually is p classic supply and demand.

yeah this

What's funny is with the global oversupply of oil, even if Canadian garbage oil sold for exactly as much as WTI it still wouldn't be profitable

not always true, but does generally apply to the 1970's style mining projects that create mordor

The best thing SA could do in 2019 is gas all Megathreads and ban them. The lovely clique attitudes they generate is major forums cancer and has been since the original ban on them was lifted around '13.

True, true
