How much oil and petroleum products does the USA import from Canada, Mexico, and OPEC?

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸

Here's your answer over the past 50 years.
OPEC is in Blue
Mexico is in Brown
Canada is in Green

Will Trump turn to OPEC?

@chris turning off the tap for a few weeks seems like a sensible reminder of the hand that feeds

@chris not in time to stop the gas price hikes from hitting his cult following. And even if he does that won’t be enough to avoid some increase. Transportation costs from Canada or Mexico to the US are lower than from halfway (ok more like a third of the way) around the world. But could be his plan. He sure seems to think he’s tight with the Saudis.

@fletch @chris Unfortunately, that could also be just the kind of excuse that the orange shitstain is looking for to justify an invasion.

@chris
Why not? OPEC nations they've spent the past decade ploughing billions into LLM development. The same ones used to suffocate democracy.
Trump's only uses for the White House are punishing people who don't like him, and whoring our nation for personal gain.

So #OPEC or #OPECplus seem like good choices for a malicious narcissist.

@LazarusMP @chris you think he needs an excuse? You’re Poland 1937, start acting like you learned from history. Pivot sales to EU.

@fletch @LazarusMP @chris Exactly, we (Canada) need to quit worrying about US markets and open new markets in other countries - now that the US has broken the Trade deal it's within our rights & they can pound salt.

@chris Because Alberta is loyal to Trump, the later need not worry about oil flow from Alberta to USA. Trudeau doesn't have the guys to challenge Danielle Smth to cut off flow of oil.

@jfmezei keep an eye on BC. We have a natural gas line through Sumas that supplies the PNW.
