Ie) Importing oil from Saudi Arabia into Eastern Canadian refineries. If anything, it's giving more power to producers with less regulation/compliance and making climate change worse, is it not?
I'm 100% for investing into clean technology, renewable energy, hybrids/EVs, etc... and decreasing this demand on oil would eventually impact our producers... but just don't get how restricting and protesting against our O&G producers and pipelines benefits us whatsoever.
