[Myxale]

Kind of ironic that. :hmm:

[Abd_von_Mumit]

That probably means that the oil doesn't come from Iraq nor Saudi Arabia, but from Caucasus... Go to Caucasus to see, how it's "terror free". :-?

You are thinking of Venezuela, but that would be wrong too.

Canada.

The US buys more oil from Canada than all of the Middle East Countries combined (and that includes Saudi Arabia).

Do they (we) buy it from Canada Based companies, or does the oil actually come from Canada?

The oil comes from Canada, Alberta mostly. Most of it is locked away in the oil sands. It costs quite a bit to suck it out of the ground because of the sand, and it wasnt until the price per barrel went waaay up that it became feasible to extract it. Most (if not all) gets piped to the USA, where it is refined, and then we buy it back. Hence....why our gas pump prices are more expensive than yours. I live 7 miles from the US border, we pay 89.9 cents per liter right now. Across the border (nearest town is 30 mins away) gas is 2.25 per gallon (as posted on the internet). 89.9 cents per liter = approx 3.40 per US gallon (CAD pesos), or 2.88 per gallon USD.

A friend of mine who live in Ontario says that Canada want to build nuclear power plants to generate electricty only to extract oil from sands then export oil to USA.:damn:

What's wrong with that? Spend $500 million to sell several billions in oil? Sounds like a good idea to me. IIRC, the oil sands to which you refer hold *huge* amounts of oil.

Actually, the real reason Canadian gas is more expensive is because it's taxed a bit more up here (of course, the difference in prices between Canada and the USA pale in comparison to the sky-high gas prices in Europe). Thanks to NAFTA, shipping the refined fuel back across the border really doesn't make it more expensive for us than it would if we refined it ourselves.

Lol...my bad :oops: I guess I'm too much of a conspiracy theorist thinking our government is dumb enough to buy back the gas for more than we sell it or something:doh:

Anyhow Alberta's oil sands are believed to be second only to the Saudi Arabia reserves. From an Alberta government website:
"They are contained in three major areas beneath 140,200* square kilometres of north-eastern Alberta - an area larger than the state of Florida, an area twice the size of New Brunswick, more than four and half times the size of Vancouver Island, and 26 times larger than Prince Edward Island. However, only about two per cent of the initial established resource has been produced to date."

We have already thousends of deaths related to (finedust) oil use in cars, diesel most, so the tax shall not be lowered untill car engines are clean.:nope:
