Most Americans Don't Know Canada Is Their Biggest Oil Supplier

"The findings suggest a foundation of American public support for meaningful initiatives to expand Canadian energy supplies to the U.S.," said CABC chairman Randoph Dove in a statement. "As more and more Americans recognize Canada as a secure source of energy resources, this support should only increase," he said. The release of this poll came just as energy-rich Alberta launched a massive lobbying effort in Washington to get across its message that Canada — and especially Alberta — has a stable and secure supply of oil that it's eager to sell the U.S. http://www.cbc.ca/story/business/national/2006/06/27/energy.html

    What are the percentages again: 27% of oil and 85% of natural gas?

    We should all be rich like the Saudis, or bombed out like Iraq. Since we're not rich or bombed out, I gather that Canada is pumping off the oil and gas for a fraction of the true value.

    12% oil, 14% natural gas.
