Some time ago "anon 1" sent me a link for tracking permits and wells in Canada; I mentioned that I would post the link at my "Data Links" page. I must have forgotten; if it's there, I didn't see it.
The link is now there. A link to a website that tracks permits and wells north of the border. It's called GeoActivity Maps and is now linked in various locations on my "Data Links" page.
In addition, the reader provided me with a link that shows rig locations in western Canada.
A big apology to all involved, saying that I would post the links and then forgot. A huge "thank you" to a reader for catching this. The reader was using Google analytics when he noticed a spike in visits to the MillionDollarWay when "anon 1" posted the Canadian link.
