"Alberta has long been Canada's 'energy province.' Albertans' spirit to achieve has made the first 25 years of oil sands development about producing the oil sands competitively in world markets. Through ongoing research and technology work continues to find new and improved ways of recovering this significant resource and reducing the environmental footprint. As we look to the next 25 years, innovation, determination and people realizing possibilities will help our province develop this resource in a responsible way that helps meet the growing global demand for energy." oilsands.alberta.ca
