When a nation cannot safeguard its citizens against freezing in the dark, nor control how much energy it exports, nor set the price at which citizens can buy back their own energy from foreign transnational corporations, it is not an energy superpower, it is an energy satellite.
Canada has deliberately chosen not to put the essential interests of its own people above the interests of the U.S.
If Canada were not enmeshed in NAFTA, it would be self-sufficient in oil,
I personally think it's time for a federally mandated national energy policy in Canada, beginning with the nationalization of the strategic tar sands resource.
