00:00:00.000 What better competitive advantage than to have our own oil and gas at reasonable prices?
00:00:04.640 I wonder how fast we could turn around the harvest and processing of oil in Canada.
00:00:11.740 How quickly could we, I mean, I don't know what the process would be, buying a refinery.
00:00:16.520 There's a lot of red tape.
00:00:17.660 Well, it's our own red tape, though.
00:00:19.420 The government just got out of the way of itself.
00:00:21.580 How fast could we do this?
00:00:23.500 Two years.
00:00:24.060 So PetroCanada started in 75.
00:00:27.480 Yeah.
00:00:27.720 So that's when it did.
00:00:28.460 And within a couple of years, they had bought two oil and gas companies with refineries in Canada, and they started production.
00:00:36.640 Yeah, that's what I mean, two years, it seems to be.
00:00:38.480 They did this before with limited technology in two years, which means we could probably do it now even sooner.
00:00:43.360 But two years, that's a pretty good window.
00:00:45.860 Yeah, I'm sure.
00:00:46.580 Now, think about it.
00:00:47.860 If I'm sitting now, some people say it's a bad time to do it.
00:00:51.780 Maybe so, because quite frankly, the only ones cleaning up right now are the guys who, you know, we sold it off.
00:00:57.720 So we don't own it as a government.
00:00:59.320 We have no stake in that game anymore.
00:01:01.100 So the guys, you know, even Russia now who are selling into the market, they're making more money, a little more money, because quite frankly, the market is good for them to sell at a higher price.
00:01:11.880 We're too late to the game.
00:01:13.440 We're not too late.
00:01:14.480 But we don't know what the next 10 years are going to bring.
00:01:16.700 Yeah, we just, I think the question we have to be asking or we have to be talking about in the House and throughout government, how long is this going to go?
00:01:26.760 How susceptible are we to seeing these huge impacts and what is it going to do to our economy?
00:01:33.800 To me, this is one we have to talk about what we're going to do if this keeps going and if this keeps on and on.
00:01:39.340 It seems to me that if we're the ones supplying the oil to them and we're not making money at it,
00:01:43.980 it behooves us to stop the chain of distribution to the U.S. long enough to renegotiate a deal.
00:01:51.620 If we did that, would there be a deal to be had?
00:01:54.080 Or do we just have to?
00:01:56.200 I think if we keep sending them oil and we keep that deal, that's great.
00:01:59.280 Now we don't have to buy it back.
00:02:00.420 So we're not losing on that premium buyback.
00:02:02.500 Now they have the ability to move that oil wherever they want.
00:02:05.660 They don't have Canada as a customer anymore for the buying the premium back.
00:02:08.520 they just have Canada as a supplier.
00:02:10.640 So if we're supplying Canada with our own new system
00:02:14.240 and we're covering that end and more,
00:02:16.920 there's money saved, is there not?
