"Highlights from the State of Competition in the Canadian Petroleum Industry - the government report that alleges monopoly practices by Canada's big oil companies." - from front cover. "Compiled from the more than 135,000 secret oil company documents that were seized by government investigators in raids between 1973 and 1978....

Rockefeller. Has anything changed? Book
