A gentleman by the name of Kevin H. Stecyk is putting out some very lucid and informed original writing on the Royalty Review. Well worth the read. He's up to part nine now; the whole series can be accessed here:

Take a look at Pedro van Meurs column in today's Edmonton Journal. The good doctor has now decided to break from the government and the Panel and go solo with a justification for the bitumen tax. He has essentially showed his hand-- he wants to shut down virtually every new oil sand project in Alberta through is bitumen tax. I assume you will do a post critiquing the good doctor's bitumem tax.
Thank you for the shout out. I plan to write a few more installments.
In short, while I agree that the oil sands royalty needs updating to reflect current circumstances, the Panel performed a poor job. My installments highlight various aspects and I will wrap it up in a summary article in the next while.
