< Another thing. If the trust structure vanishes would Peyto or Canadian Oil Sands lose their value?>

Of course they'll be fine, Ottawa will happily sell them to Chinese and Indian investors, much less hassle than trying to manage the sector. Look at the DFO and the Atlantic and Pacific fisheries which proved too much to manage and have largely been 'outsourced' to fish farming.

Be careful what you wish for, there are many ways COS & PEY could exist that will have zero benefits for individual investors.
