re:"presence in Alberta"...
Did you ask if they ever tried?
I think they may have back quite a few years ago when the oilpatch was singing along. It may have been around when they did the 3 refineries for the Emirates, which projects never led to any further followups,i.e., a pipeline.
A successful development of the high resistant coating would have been so great of an R&D effort. Que sera sera.
