Just a terrific summary by Lorne of the coal policy nightmare that the UCP government has bestowed upon us. I might add that the major industry for which our coal is destined is the overseas (mainly China) steel making industry. And this industry is beginning the transition to a green process that does not involve burning coal. Who knows then if there will even be a market for this coal in a decade or so.
