Alberta has a lot of oil, and even created a fund, the Heritage Fund, in the 1970s to save some of the wealth from drilling oil.

Unfortunately Alberta has mismanaged that fund so it is now far smaller than Norway's.

Norwegian oil is vastly cheaper to extract and deliver to willing customers than Canadian oil sands.
