Yes the blending facility did go bankrupt so why do people assume it was Colin's fault.

ADAM....
That's the problem. Eeveryone is assuming too much. Part of the plan, that is laughable.
It doesn't matter what the company JBI says or does, it wll always be part of the plan to most of you people.
Colin Robbins gave up YES gave upa vitial executive position to be with JBI. Phone Suncor and find out how vital Colin was to Suncor's Blending Program. I will give you his secretary's phone number at Suncor in Houston if you like.
Yes the blending facility did go bankrupt so why do people assume it was Colin's fault.
Contributing Factors include:
Market conditions...I can give you a list of gas bars and customers in Ontario that still owe Robbins Fuels their debts.
Government Regulations and Taxation:
Lack of laws compelling customers to pay their debts.
As a fuel company Colin put a lot of trust in his customers operating gas bars, which in turn provided some competition that helped you, the consumer at the pumps.
I think a good start for a lot of people on this board would be to purchase a petroleum business in Ontario, to get first hand knowledge of the business.
You can kick the oil can, but be carefull you don't slip in the spillage.....JBI Plastic to Oil will be filling up the can regardless

SO, when did Colin close the company and who bought the tank farm in the bankruptcy?
