I guess this is the kind of forward thinking you can get away with in the last months of your presidency.

So does this mean that a barrel of oil produced in USA will be $10 additional (if passed). And if it does trickle down to consumers, wouldnt that make US oil expensive to buy. If thats the case, wouldnt Europe want to purchase Canadian Oil (granted, they'd have to do their own cost benefit analysis. I was just thinking hypothetically)? And furthermore, wouldnt this also mean provinces buying US oil be better off buying Canadian Oil?

Ultimately, isnt the $10 per barrel good for Canada? And doesnt this stress the importance of getting various pipelines built?
