Hello,

I am Jasdeep Grewal, a Grade 9 student from Edmonton, Alberta. I go to school at Progressive Academy. We are doing a year end project about oil sands so we decided to email you for some information. How do you feel about the Alberta oil sands? Please let us know ASAP.

Thanks, Jasdeep Grewal

Hi Jasdeep,

Thank you for the email! I think the Alberta oil sands are very important to our economy, and provide a lot of jobs as well for people. For example, Syncrude is one of the largest private sector employers in Alberta, employing more than 5,000 people directly and an average of 1,000-1,500 maintenance contractor employees. Our operations provide jobs for 14,000 people directly and indirectly across Canada. This fact, and others like it can be found on our website, here:__ @http://www.syncrude.ca/users/folder.asp?FolderID=5617 __

You can also read copies of our Annual report, which has a lot of great facts about the oil sands - the PDF’s are found here: __ @http://www.syncrude.ca/users/folder.asp?FolderID=5713 __

There is also a really great fact book about Syncrude, which should give you some good information for your project. The link to it is on this page: __ @http://www.syncrude.ca/users/folder.asp?FolderID=5959 __

Good luck, and thanks for emailing us!

Cheers,
