🇨🇦 Canada Sitting on an Energy Fortune While Net-Zero Ideology Keeps It Locked Underground

Oil is hitting $200 a barrel. Vietnam has parked 20 percent of its airline fleet. BP Italia has declared a fuel shortage at Milan. Qatar's jet fuel facility — the largest in the world — has been offline for five weeks after drone strikes. European airports are weeks from critical shortages. And Canada, one of the largest energy reserve holders on the planet, cannot furnish it — because Ottawa insists any new pipeline infrastructure must be decarbonized first. Dan McTeague, who spent 18 years as a Liberal MP, said it plainly: no other nation on earth would impose that condition on its own resources during a global supply crisis.

A Montreal-Toronto return flight has jumped from $700 to $1,000. That's not a weather event — that's the direct cost of ideological energy policy colliding with geopolitical reality. The Carney Liberals are standing in front of a burning building debating the carbon footprint of the fire hose. Canada could be supplying the world right now. Instead it's importing the inflation.
