Thank you, a liberal as suggested that the terrorist attacked us because of our dependence on Middle East oil. Any Canadian terrorist on the horizon?

You're not suggesting that we do not have a dependence on Middle East oil, are you?

The link between importing oil and terrorist - I don't get that - but we definitely do have a dependence on middle east oil. The same chart that shows we import the most oil from Canada also shows that we get 13% of our oil imports from Saudi Arabia alone. And Saudi Arabia and Iraq combined account for nearly 18% of our imported oil. That certainly is a dependence - we could not easily replace that 2 million barrels per day.

Yes, but we will cease all operations against your nation if you hand over Lazamataz. He is naughty and needs to be punished.
