Not many people think oil from Canada is dirty. Nobody I know anyways. Keep that stuff coming. My sleds won't run on water -- they need gas!

Apparently you don't watch the news that much or pay attention to the world stage.

In a nutshell, northern Oilsands in Alberta have been deemed "Dirty" and therefore many U.S. states do not want the Americans to buy it.....even though the reserves there are the second largest compared to the middle east I believe. In fact laws are

I have seen (in my line of work which happens to be oil and gas) China coming in and buying up a buncha small oil companies....hate to say it, but the U.S. may want to start paying attention to whats going on in the great white north too.....

Bituminous sands.
Colloquially known as oil sands (and sometimes referred to as tar sands) - are a type of unconventional petroleum deposit. The sands contain naturally occurring mixtures of sand, clay, water, and a dense and extremely viscous form of petroleum technically referred to as bitumen (or colloquially "tar" due to its similar appearance, odor, and color). Oil sands are found in large amounts in many countries throughout the world, but are found in extremely large quantities in Canada and Venezuela.

Oil sands reserves have only recently been considered to be part of the world's oil reserves.

Making liquid fuels from oil sands requires energy for steam injection and refining. This process generates two to four times the amount of greenhouse gases per barrel of final product as the production of conventional oil.

THERE IS A LITTLE INFORMATION FOR YOU ABOUT YOUR "OIL SANDS" ;)! :wel:

I do pay attention, and I still don't think that made any sense. But politics will ruin a good thread fast. I think we can all agree that the original pic was pretty funny.
 
i agree , this was for laughing purposes only, oil is oil as long as it's refined into gas for my SRX i don't care lol!
