Hi Sharky,

Your concerns appear to be the result of past experience and of course often that is the best teacher.

I feel very comfortable with Connacher in every way, so it is probably unfair of me to try to bring "A little levity into the discussion".

I know some of the personal relationships that exist with regard to Connacher. Obviously, I will not disclose those friendships but they are not insiders.

Some have been CEOS of large successful oil companies, so I know that Connacher has access to some os the best advice available.

Other than normal minor start up problems, everything has gone very well.

For example, I believe POD 1 it is the best SAGD start up in the oil sands.

Like any oll and gas operation, things may not go perfectly. But that is the kind of investment we are in.

I do not expect people to agree with me, but I have been trying to help.

Best Wishes,

Lynn
