American PAYS for Canada's oil.
Canada is probably the number 1 supplier of American oil.
Greenland is staking a claim for that oil to.
The fact that Russia, Canada, American, and Greenland all have a legal claim to it since they all have boundry lines there.
You should really be more concerned with Russia. American environmentalist won't let the US drill their own oil.

Someone has been misinforming you. The oil in question is not in Canada but in Antarctica. It became an issue when Russia's President, recently declared all of Antarctica to be Russian territory. President Bush and most of the other world leaders disagree. They believe that Antarctica is international territory.
BTW- We in the United States hope Canada finds plenty more oil and natural gas. We will gladly purchase all you can sell us.

Now. Guess what! Those tar sands of yours? You know, that bitter stuff you have to mine instead of drill for? That stuff that has to be refined three times more than sweet crude?
If you had to sell it to anyone other than the US, you would have to shut down operations every time the price of a barrel went below $60.00. Without the US as a customer the transportation costs to China would kill you, 'eh?
That Bush keeps the price of oil up is the only reason you are not bankrupt and asking for aid.
Did you notice that Bush went against our laws to allow subsidized Canadian softwood to compete with our own, un-subsidized companies so you wouldn't go out of business?
Did you notice that he opened another pipline of US currency into Canada with NAFTA?
If I were you, I would get off the Hockey Rink and go down to Washington and give George Bush a kiss right dead on his fat ***.
Haven't you noticed that most people on the planet can not find Canada on the map and you are the second largest country in the world?
If not for Bush, the Russians would suck up all that oil without even telling you about it, 'eh? They already consider Canada part of the Russian Continental Shelf and you are worried about Bush?
Snap out of it and get over yourself!

the only reason the oil is now potential is by using the starting to be costs of oil. If we had shifted our potential coverage far flung from the oil monopolies 10 years in the past, the tar sands would not be worthwhile and we could have extra maximum budget friendly potential. that's like pulling a band-help off slowely. finally we can ought to circulate far flung from oil and the later we wait the dearer/scarce it is going to alter into. which will impression customers and fiscal improve.

It is an obvious fact that we need oil to run our economy, and we will need more of it until another energy source is developed. Canada's oil is much more convenient, and we will pay them for it, just like we pay every other country that has oil.

Yeah yeah yeah.
And you want our protection, our technology, our advanced medicine, access to our markets, access to satellites and space technology, our food, our clothes, our movies, our television, our music, our books, our soft drinks, our universities, our sports teams, etc et cte cte cte cte ct e
Anyway, last I checked, America and Canada get along pretty well. We BUY some of your oil and you BUY some of our stuff. In fact, we have the largest trading partnership in the world...
But hey, if you think Canada would benefit from breaking trade with the United States, I suggest you contact your state rep. and take it up with him....
lol...dont be surprised if you get laughed out of the building.
