CALGARY, Alberta (Reuters) - Shares in Canadian oil sands developers skidded on Wednesday as investors weighed the possible impact of a top-level Alberta report recommending the industry fork over higher royalties and taxes.

2 J# U7 U/ Q5 |' J9 w( Z5 G; H" yAn expert panel appointed by Conservative Premier Ed Stelmach has urged the government to change the fiscal regime, arguing residents are not getting their fair share from booming energy activity, including oil sands development.

Angevine estimated the changes to the royalty structure could cut oil sands projects' net present value by 7 percent to 10 percent.

But panel chairman Bill Hunter said on Tuesday that Albertans get a smaller share of oil and gas rewards than residents of most other major producing regions. He said making the changes would not harm Alberta's attractiveness as a place for energy investment." c3 O8 h$ T- A; Z; i6 s# q
