It does make a difference where it comes from.

People extracting oil in the US pay taxes on it and help the economy with local spending. States like Texas also get a cut for their tax revenues, minimizing the burden on taxpayers.

Canadian oil gets sold at market price in the US and profits most Canada.

So, now, answer my question.

I see. If we buy American oil the workers pay income taxes. The corporations pay income taxes. You like income taxes, oops no, you like tariffs. Oh wait tariffs require imports so you like imports, oops no, you like income taxes.
