Canadian Oil: A Missed Opportunity

In a recent interview with Canadian psychologist Jordan B. Peterson, Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre shed light on some critical issues concerning Canadian oil and natural gas.

The whole 11-minute interview is a must-watch for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of the Canadian energy sector.

Here are some key highlights from the interview:

  • 4:10: Poilievre discusses the nature of Canada’s trade surplus, calling it a “ripoff” and stating that Canada is essentially ripping itself off.
  • 4:25: He points out that Canada’s entire trade surplus with the United States is attributed to oil and natural gas exports.
  • 4:30: Canada exports $120 billion worth of oil and gas to the United States at significant discounts compared to market prices.
  • 4:40: Poilievre attributes this situation to Canada’s failure to develop the necessary infrastructure for refining and transporting energy to global markets.
  • 5:10: Canadians are forced to sell their oil to Americans at a discount ranging from 10 to 40% below the world price.
  • 5:20: Historically, Canada has sent 99% of its oil exports to the United States due to lack of infrastructure for diversification.
  • 5:40: Canada also exports all its natural gas to the United States due to the absence of a liquefaction terminal in Canada.
  • 6:20: If elected Prime Minister, Poilievre pledges to approve the construction of refineries and LNG plants to address these issues.
  • 6:30: Poilievre emphasizes the importance of maintaining a strong trade relationship with the United States, highlighting the mutual benefits of Canadian energy exports for both countries.
  • 6:45: He advocates for the approval of projects like the Keystone Pipeline to facilitate the transportation of Canadian oil to the U.S.
  • 7:20: Poilievre suggests exploring opportunities for increased trade in electricity to further enhance economic cooperation between Canada and the U.S.
  • 8:15: He criticizes Prime Minister Trudeau for failing to collaborate with Germany and Japan on natural gas initiatives, potentially missing out on valuable partnerships.
  • 9:14: Poilievre offers a thought-provoking analogy about economic decisions and the importance of making wise choices.
  • 9:50: He highlights the interconnected nature of the North American economy, citing the example of an automobile crossing the border multiple times during the manufacturing process.

The interview paints a picture of missed opportunities and untapped potential in the Canadian energy sector. Poilievre’s insights underscore the importance of strategic decision-making and collaboration to unlock the full economic benefits of Canada’s natural resources.
