An Alberta minister will try to attract investment and trade to the oilsands in Scotland this month.
International and Intergovernmental Relations Minister Cal Dallas will attend the World Heavy Oil Conference in Aberdeen, Scotland to showcase the technology of the oilsands and stress the province’s commitment to the environment.
Dallas says Alberta needs to be part of the international dialogue.
“Alberta’s a key player in this, and certainly heavy oil opportunities are largely centred in Alberta.” He says, “We need to be a voice at that table, and we need to carry the messaging around the globe from and Alberta perspective.”
Dallas will also tour Germany and Italy to meet with potential investors.
