It currently ends just south of Fort McMurray and Foote said CN would be prepared to look at a partnership to build a new road and rail bridge across the Athabasca River to connect with the oilsands projects to the north. , {" `' P6 s!

The group concludes that Canadians benefit very little from the industry's production on account of this high degree of foreign ownership. 2 r; K) y$ ]+ o! J6 M% V8 F' ?/ P2 r, }: q
There is no doubt that foreigners benefit from their investment in Canada. If they didn't, why would they invest here? But they don't benefit at our expense. The important thing to recognize is that Canadians also benefit from foreign investment.2 O' E( x, p1 i/ f# X4 H
