DAVID KESTENBAUM has a very short but to the point blog post on Canada’s energy (gasoline/oil) independence. They are energy independent and it makes absolutely no difference. Their prices fluctuate with world oil prices and are no cheaper than in the US.
So let’s stop the silliness of predicating every bad ecoviergy policy idea on a desire for energy independence.
