Many people don't know that the largest supplier of oil to the US is Canada. A recent survey of americans showed that only 4% were aware that Canada was the largest supplier. With a new push from Canada to increase oil exports to the US, and the positive response from the americans, it seems that the eventual outcome will be a significant reduction in US dependance on mideast oil.
What do people here think the effect would be on people living in mideast countries? On world politics? mideast politics? on anything?:?
 
probably encourages the middle east to follow canada and do the same...:rollseyes

The current discussion in the West is on nuclear energy. Oil will lose out because of pollution.

And anybody can come and inspect the plants. There is no point getting anybody upset.

The UAE will probably use its oil money to research nuclear fusion or something, and if it works, sell it to other countries.

LOL

Now with Canada exploiting its vast reserves of oil sands in the Athabasca Range, our gluttonous oil dependence will continue till at least 2050. If the price drops to $50/barrel why conserve, why develop alternative energy?
 
LOL,

Wow, Yes Canada imports the most oil to USA,

But who has the Most Oil Reserves for the World Ahem coughs*Saudi Arabia* And Oil reserves are just as important as imported oil as canada does!~

The OPEC nations have consistently overextimated their proven reserves for years. I believe Canada and Venezuela are #1 and #2 now.
