Canada should turn the tap off, build a bunch of refineries, and only sell the oil as a finished product.
We loose so much opportunity by selling raw crude, between the jobs, the capital investment, the markup on the product, its so stupid. As someone in the mining industry, I hope the government declares oil a 'strategic national resource' like they did with potash, and starts to regulate how much gets shipped south a little bit closer.
