Canadian Official Offers the U.S. Plenty of Oil From ‘Right Next Door’

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that gas prices are painfully high. You also know that the Biden administration is doing nothing to help ease the strain.

The fact of the matter is that Biden’s energy policies — which we can summarize as “just buy an electric vehicle” — have much to do with the high price of gas.

Even though the Biden administration has shut down domestic oil production, various government officials have approached states that are less-than-friendly to the U.S. — like Iran and Venezuela — seeking oil.

But even if the administration still stubbornly refuses to drill for domestic oil, there’s a supplier that’s even closer to the U.S. and friendlier toward us — Canada. And one Canadian official wants to know why we’re not going north to ask for oil.

Sonya Savage is Alberta’s minister of energy, and, to be clear, she’s not a Trudeau acolyte. She’s a member of the United Conservative Party of Alberta, so she’s a fellow traveler with American conservatives. She’s been asking for weeks why the U.S. isn’t seeking Canadian oil.
