🇨🇦 Iran War Oil Shock Exposes Canada's Self-Inflicted Energy Paralysis in Real Time

Oil is hitting $200 a barrel. Qatar's jet fuel facility has been offline five weeks due to drone strikes. Vietnam has parked 20 percent of its airline fleet. Montreal-to-Toronto return flights have jumped from $700 to $1,000. Dan McTeague, gas analyst and former Liberal MP, told National Post he has never seen a month like this in any previous energy crisis — and Canada, sitting on some of the world's largest reserves, cannot supply the world because its own policy demands pipelines be decarbonized first.

McTeague put it plainly: no other nation on earth would attach that condition to its own resources during a global emergency. Canada has the oil. Canada chose not to be able to move it. Every cancelled flight, every fuel surcharge, every rationed tank is a direct consequence of net-zero theology applied to a sovereign nation's energy infrastructure. The world is begging to buy what we deliberately chose not to sell. That is not environmentalism — that is national self-sabotage dressed in green.
