Trump launches trade war against Canada with a 25% tariff on most goods

I think you're missing the sheer scale of production capacity, and severely underestimateing how it actually makes the primary issue (logistics) so much worse. Refinement turns the raw inputs into MANY output products, and you can't mix them, so suddenly you have the same volume of products, but suddenly you need even more complex logistical frameworks to move them. The suggestion of putting refineries in AB when we're already bottlenecked is the industrial equivalent of hiring a pro athlete to teach a newborn infant to run. There isn't a conspiracy as to why refineries are all geographically positioned for maximal logistical efficiency: they're extremely sensitive to logistics.
If we were going to put a refinery anywhere, it should be in BC. If they're more comfortable putting other refined petroleum products on ships, sweet. The construction is big money infused into the economy, so is the operation. So is the increased shipping activity.
Like, Canada is one country, and now more than ever it HAS to be operating at the national level of economic interests. Canada HAS to integrate it's energy with the rest of the world.

That makes perfect sense to me.

Which corporations will use as covert to jack up all their prices and not lower them when fuel prices go back down.

We're both getting fucked. We will buy fewer goods from Canada, but we will pay the tax (tariff) on them.

Dont worry, soon you will only make transactions in Doge and get paid in Bitcoin.
Why else would they be going out of their way to kill the dollar?

Yeah right, like I'd fill my body with rocks.
