re: #2 Buck

I guess it is important to point out that this is simply not true. Canada (Alberta) does NOT import oil from Saudi Arabia.

Liar.

statcan.gc.ca

Domestic crude accounts for only about 45% of Canada’s oil consumption. Imports represented the remaining 55%, mostly coming from either North Sea countries or the Middle East. Imported oil feeds refineries mostly in Eastern Canada.

If you mean just Alberta, then who gives a shit?

This whole argument is fucking stupid. The total level of consumption of oil is what sets the price of oil. If we want to defund the oil-rich Middle Eastern countries, we need to not consume so much oil.
