Suncor is a Canadian energy company. The stock symbol is SU on the NYSE. They are average or a little better in the industry.
At $60 a barrel for oil, North America could easily become 100% energy independent with oil sands, oil shale and coal.... all converted very profitably into fuel.

Natural gas was discovered off the west coast of Ireland in the '90s - but there are idiots who are objecting to bringing it in because they are a afraid the onshore refinery will be dangerous - such a mindset is bad, no good is ever done without risk, and I guess my point that is relevant to this thread is energy independence is good!!
There are 300 billion barrels of economically recoverable oil in those sands as of now, with something like 1.5 trillion barrels in the deposit, total.
