Husky CEO Sees Canada-Only Carbon Tax as ‘Politically Suicidal’

Husky has structured its business to turn a profit with U.S. crude at $40 a barrel and Canadian gas not exceeding C$3.00 per gigajoule, Ghosh said. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, which in the past has held order in global oil markets, is now unstable, he said.

“Going forward, its ability to manage price is not something one should build a business plan on,” Ghosh said. “The downturn has turned out to be more protracted and more severe than even our conservative assumptions.”

Alberta has a Socialist government and the newly elected Federal government is now also left leaning. Neither care about a businessmans version of political suicide, they only care about creating a BIGGER tax base with which to buy their next round of votes - I mean support public services. Damn the working folks, theres free daycare that needs to be paid for!
