mexico did not sign the energy pack re free trade they sill own there own oil not like us

T he only thing maloony did was give away CANADA, now there is nothing left Canadian. He gave it away under NAFTA. THE USA now owns are oil rights

right on

Under Trudeau we would have owned our OIL But malruney GAVE IT TO THE US

I get more than that because I own shares in a few oil companies. The shareholders get the difference, not 'the USA.' If more Americans invest in our industry (ie, give us cash for sticky black stuff), the better off we are. If you want a share, pay for it. Why do you expect to get money for doing nothing? You can buy shares in Royal Dutch Shell on the NYSE under the ticker symbol RDS.A (other share options available) if you want a share of that Dutch wealth. You see, it's not based on national lines, it's based on whatever individuals own the companies. The toxic water is from gas exploration in the South, not from heavy oil extraction. It was likely a natural thing in many areas that is just blamed on the gas industry. the toxic water is from processing bitman from the tar sands. there is three unuseable water from that process for every barraland cannot be filterd clean . You have a big lake of toxic water that u can see from space. You do not know what u have in your back yard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thry got our oil for nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and alberta that is the only thing you will have left

Your clueless. Where do you think that profit comes from to begin with? Do you think Canadians can buy all the oil Alberta produces? The Americans make our industry. Do they take a cut? Sure. But I'll gladly take their dollars in exchange for slimy black stuff. You just don't get it. Without NAFTA, Canada would be poorer than it already is. Alberta needs NAFTA. If you don't like oil profits going south, buy more shares in oil companies and stop whining about it. Alberta gets $ 4.00 a barral thats all they get norway gets $ 22.00 a barral Iam talking about what they get off oil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!not what kind of country they are there should be a thing called fair trade , should there not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You don,t get it nafta gave our rights to are our oil and everthing else in Canada Norway is a Unionionist Country, even it's Military is unionized. Can you imagine that? Once the gravy boat is passed around to all the socialists with their grubby hands out in Norway there isn't that much cash or gravy left but globs of fat. So I don't think we are getting such a bad deal for our black gold.

That's a misleading statistic. Norway's oil is extracted by mostly government owned companies. The $18 or so spread your talking about is North American oil company profit, which is what we all get being shareholders of oil companies. Alberta's GDP is higher than Norways. Why must we levy higher royalties? I'm happy with the way things are. shell oil does not have share holders in canada its now owened by riyal dutch shell!!!!!!! Have you not read the papers thTS BIG OIL,S GDP NOT ALBERTA,S ALBERTA IS $4.00 A BARRAL THE ONLY THING ALBERTA IS LEFT IS TOXIC WATER

Nafta did not give any rights to anyone for our oil. We sell our oil to the US at world prices. Norway is one of the highest taxed countries in the world with taxes rising every year. It is not a socialist utopia, it is another socialist nightmare. we do not sell our oil at would pricees big oil sells our oil at world prices we get $4,00 a barral

if its gas taxes its 14.7 cents a liter in ontario

Investment in Alberta alone is about 18 billion a year. . You can show us such a contract. and can u show us a chart that shows us the profit tha leaves canada. In 2003 alberta got 5 billion in royalties and norway got 50 billion in royalties for there people of the same amount oil and gas. may bee why norway is the # 1 place in the wourld tp mlive and canada has fallon to the 23rd spot

Good, I hope you enjoy your skyrocketing unemployment when Canada's biggest non-state welfare engine gets shut down. Oil and gas is directly responsibile for your quality of life, without it, Canada has NOTHING anymore. I hear people like you ranting in bars... after getting their paycheque from EnCana or Huskey. 80% of all profit from the gastards (big oil) leave Canada do to the free trade deal. The US has the rights to are oil not CANDIANS

Okay so call me cranky but when I'm right, I'm right. I could have expressed myself less sarcastically but I truly wanted to make the point that Alberta is not the centre of the universe. no alberta is becoming the sess pool of canada do to big oil. I would not run or work there ether. 70% of the oil prduction goes to the us and leaves the shit behind for the albertin,s enjoy the rest of there lives. When you run out of water do not look east were we hwve some . I would not run there my self.

The 4 mager refiner marketers for the 3/4 2006 profits jumped up 1.09 cents a litre after the so called gst deduction . That is over 3/4 2005 . that proves the gst deduction was put in the back pockets of big oil and not to the people of canada like the so called hew goverment said it would. This should be a canada wide court case. The new word for big oil is GASTARDS. IT is time we took the gasdards on
