Transcript

00:00:00.000 We were driving in east of Calgary earlier this morning,
00:00:06.000 developing a kinship here in Alberta, going by different oil rigs and whatnot.
00:00:10.000 Some people might not know this, but it was born in a place in southwestern Ontario called Petrolia,
00:00:14.000 which is a farm in oil city and oil springs.
00:00:17.000 First place in North America they found oil, about 20 minutes outside of Sarnia.
00:00:22.000 But I'll tell you, we drove a little bit west of Calgary today,
00:00:25.000 and I'll tell you, that's where the similarity ends.
