Perhaps letting a clueless angry teenage Scandinavian girl move policy wasn't such a great idea after all.

A another interesting read.

I also saw your oil price.com article on Canada which kind of ties in to this one in that our delays on building pipelines and the cancellation of proposed pipelines by both Trudeau and Biden hinder production levels in the oilsands due to capacity constraints.

The Trudeau government's distaste for the Canadian oil industry goes so far as to ban tanker shipments of Canadian oil from parts of our west coast while still allowing tankers of imported oil from other countries.

Ah, yes, you have a special case of cognitive dissonance, especially in British Columbia, I believe. I remember the inter-province war with Alberta about the Trans-Mountain expansion and how heroically BC opposed to it but was happy to continue receiving fuel along the existing Trans Mountain pipe.

Exactly. A number of our politicians have made public their preference for importing oil from Saudi Arabia over the production of our own oil and gas resources.
