The thing is SO9 Alberta has 95% of it's oil wells capped. The Province is rolling in money. They have a HUGE surplus, WHY don't they get these wells going?? I know it's expensive to start up but eventually it must pay for itself.!! I have to admit, I don't understand the oil industry as a whole but just seems like common sense to me. I cannot understand why the Western World Governments allowed us all to become Arab hostages!!

Most wells everywhere are capped. It is because they will produce so little oil each that they could never make enough money to pay for the pumps and pipelines to hook them up.
