After two years of work, four deadline extensions and a rash of skepticism from critics, Allan submitted his 600-page final report Friday afternoon to Energy Minister Sonya Savage. He says there was co-ordination to frustrate the development and export of Alberta oil products at two levels — among well-endowed foundations, and between ENGOs. Some have threatened court action once the final report is released. An inquiry spokesperson wouldn't confirm this, and said a full account of expenses would be released along with the final report. Krause said she wants clarity on whether the reputation of Alberta oil products has been unfairly tarnished.
