It's because of recently updated municipal government act. All munipalities has to comply. It's actually meant to reduce red tape because the planner has to deem the application complete within 20 days. If not, or if the proponent disagrees with what is being asked for, it can be challenged through appeal. It's meant to prevent applications sitting in limbo forever.

The end of oil for industrial use is at hand. And Alberta tar sand oil will soon be left in the ground.

My cylinder count is 34 and rising. Gas isn't going anywhere.

Can't wait to trade in my shitty little plug in weed wacker with a nice big gas one, buy a gas powered leaf blower, and pick up an older class B RV.

Want to hit 50.


edit. It's actually 36.

That is without the consideration of new or emerging energy sources. Ask Bill Gates and his partners what they see is the industrial demand for oil - which they intend to replace and they will say (are saying) a fraction of what it is today. Hopefully Alberta long solar hours will be an incentive to companies like the one in the article to build solar fuel harvesting plants in Alberta. Edmonton and Alberta news to gear up for change as its coming at lightening speed. As an Edmonton boy living out of country, I do support pumping as much oil as we can now - BUT also know Alberta needs to invest mega dollars NOW to diversify her economy and plan for an Alberta without markets to sell tar sand oil. The race for new energy sources is yielding results and the end of fossil fuels at least oil is within 2 decades in Europe and parts of the USA.

Oil & gas might not be going anywhere but news flash some of you have what 10-20 years before you kick it. Do you really think some Dragonball-loving Pokemon obsessed tween is gonna care about cylinders? I don't think so...

Okay and that accounts for about 5% of the world's population if true?
I don't even disagree with a lot of what you're saying but your hype train is running away.
How do I ask Bill Gates, got his phone number?

Did you even read the article? Have you read what Bill Gates has said regarding demand for energy and use of fossil fuels? Anyways, the reality is that we will be using fossil fuels for decades to come. And thats with the rapidly increasing use of renewables and technological advances that rely less on fossil fuels. The global demand for energy (particularly cheap and 'reliable' sources which are primarily derived from fossil fuels) is growing. The transition will take decades far beyond the 10-20 years that some people claim.

Now go tell that to the rest of the country which, at its current ideology will soon be buying more and more foreign oil to keep with its demands. Because you know, the proportionate share Alberta has to the upcoming climate crisis is way too much...

Lol sorry, had to add my two cents.

That project looks great. I hope it moves quickly - big tower first. We are going to need it for all the workers getting the 1 billion barrels of oil out of the ground from the "Rex play" at Edmonton's and EIA door step lol.

"A billion barrels on Edmonton’s doorstep? That’s what Geologist Steve Donaldson is calling a recent development in the Rex play, within spitting distance of Edmonton International Airport, in the Leduc-Woodbend Field."

Wonder of ERAA owns the mineral rights at the EIA property?
