Also we've seen it, if Canada reduces their exports, countries with worse environmental records and laws, and worse Human Rights records take up the slack happily.


Just in the act of Canada who actually have environmental standards being a major supplier would reduce the global carbon footprint. We should also be heavily encouraging the shipment of natural gas to countries that are using for example coal as a primary electricity generating fuel. We should be finding a way to not only take market share from countries like Saudi Arabia, the US, Russia etc, but selling our technology which brings in money to improve out technology and research alternative energy. And frankly we shouldn't be importing one friggen drop of oil and gas from Saudi Arabia.

Replacing coal with Canadian gas is a big win for the environment. Flooding the world with high carbon intensive bitumen is not.
