That is ridiculous.
Leduc was "the big one" but the oil industry was already well established in Calgary and had been for years. The first producing well in Southern Alberta was drilled in 1902. Turner Valley came in 1914 and in the 1920's Calgary became a refining centre. What became the Jumping Pound Unit began producing in the 1930's.
