As a Canadian I agree but that is difficult. Canada is so integrated with the US that they basically refine all of our crude. Canadian crude is unlike crude from anywhere else and has to be refined a certain way. So we have to build refineries or you do, that can handle our capacity. That takes time and certainly won’t be instantaneous. It’s not like we can just divert.

Yeah plus the transport would be much more expensive. But I guess building your own refineries will give much more flexibility for the future…
