Imperial Oil plans refinery closures and new Edmonton plant
Imperial Oil announces closing Winnipeg Regina and Calgary refineries and investing 200 million dollars to expand Edmonton complex to supply the Prairies with petroleum products. Smaller refineries will become distribution terminals at about six million each, with phased shutdowns over three to four years, prompting protests from Manitoba and Saskatchewan NDP representatives. Premier Schreyer supports the Manitoba plan as less dislocative, while local figures criticize corporate responsibility and regional growth. The piece also reflects on U S education experts and a light note on Joe Borowski's renewed political volleys.
