A Junior with Integrated Oil Sands Growth

In our view, Connacher shares should outperform their peer group during the

next year for the following reasons:

• An active exploration program that is not reflected in the current share price;

Experienced management, which has done an impressive job of moving from

lease acquisition to first production in under four years, while creating an

integrated business to mitigate risks;

No reliance on partners for the timing and scope of projects due to 100%

working interest in oil sands and refining assets;.

No additional funding required for 2008 capital budget or the Algar oil sands

project expected to be completed in 2009; and,

A very attractive valuation, which, in our opinion, does not reflect the

company's significant resources beyond Pod Two (Algar)
