    Interesting. The article I read calling out US refineries refining   
    Canadian oil inferred that Canada lacked the capacity to refine, not   
    the transportation logistics.   
      
    A global commerce model with open trading partners is/was a good thing,   
    but it requires all parties to act in the best interests of everyone.   
    One crony capitalist/isolationist/megalomaniac/grifter and the whole   
    model falls apart - as we're seeing now.
