The fact that 25% of U.S. exports go to Canada is a function of population. That is a very high number when you consider we are a nation of 31 million. I do agree that our resources are being plundered but it is not only the U.S. that are using them. We are the highest, per capita, user of natural resources in the world. Our governments are not protecting Canadian resources the way they should but, what are they to do. I have worked in the oil industry for enough years to know that it is the life blood of the world's economy, without it what would happen. Complete chaos. Just take a look at what happened in France a couple of years ago when gas went up to $5/litre. Stores were ransacked. What would happen here? Scary to think. There are a lot of things our government needs to do better and the first one is to stop stealing their own people's money.
