🇨🇦 Air Canada suspends some U.S. flights due to jet fuel prices as oil crisis hits Europe
Jet fuel has hit $200 a barrel, Iran's blockade trapped 1,600 tankers in the Persian Gulf, and Europe has maybe six weeks of supply left. Air Canada is already cutting Montreal and Toronto flights to JFK because routes are no longer economic. The war's oil shock will take months to stabilize, and Canadian airlines can't refuel in Europe even if they could afford to. This isn't a temporary blip — it's a cascading supply chain collapse that will strand travellers all summer.
Meanwhile, Canada remains a resource superpower that can't get its own oil to market because pipeline projects were killed by the same crowd now lecturing you about climate emergencies. We're held hostage to foreign conflicts while sitting on oceans of energy we're not allowed to extract or export. Sovereignty isn't just borders — it's energy independence, and we chose dependency.
