America produces much of its own energy. But it still imports millions of barrels of oil and billions of cubic feet of natural gas every day. In fact, oil imports from OPEC have gone up – about 45% in the past year.
Who is OPEC? It’s countries like Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, and Libya. Countries with questionable standards, and who are not traditional allies of the US.
There is another solution: Canada.
Canada has more than enough oil and gas to meet US demand for imports. It’s nearby. It’s an ally. And it’s a responsible and reliable producer. Together, Canada and the US can achieve energy security and independence for North America – in a more responsible way.
