Because it would be more expensive. That's why. We pay our workers well and we have to refine it and that is extremely expensive. Its just market factors. The government doesn't control that
Except for immigration, Canada would have a rapidly declining population, and working adults would see skyrocketing income taxes. Our “natural increase” or birth rate is 1.33, the lowest in the G7, and has been beneath the population maintenance level (2.1) since 1970s. Moreover the immigrants Canada brings in are significantly better trained and educated than Canadian-born. Complain all you want. But if it were not for immigration, you’d be up a creek without a paddle.
Canada's immigration policy is merit based. An immigrant has to prove they can contribute positively to society either with their talent, their innovations or their profession etc...

Stop sending unrefined oil to the US, let get the refineries going again, then we can send them gas and other high quality products, the price is more then we are getting robbed blind for by the US. Or just stop sending them hydro and fuel until they agree to the new rules for Canada's oil
Watch them switch their refineries to light oil and never buy our landlocked heavy crude, halting transfer payments and bankrupting Canada. Take a back seat and let the grown ups drive.
The US doesn't need gas. They are pretty much self-sufficient in gasoline. Most of the oil they pull from the ground is light crude which is easy to refine and great for gas and jet fuel. They need our heavy crude for all the other petroleum based products. They only pull heavy crude from some fields in California and Alaska but it's highly polluting to refine and there are transportation costs. We have the new Sturgeon refinery in Alberta that went into commercial operation June 2020. It processes crude from the oil sands into Ultra Low Sulfur diesel (ULSD), naphtha and vacuum gas oil (VGO). Instead of using the highly polluting coking and cracking processes of older refineries, it uses hydrogen processing (hydroprocessing) and then captures the carbon. Most of the ULSD stays in Canada for domestic use.

@@Dbodell8000 Well you need to examine the difference in immigration laws of the US as compared with Canada...here in Canada there is the Temporary Foreign Worker Program that Canadian Businesses can take advantage of ONLY if it can be proved that they cannot recruit Canadians AN D that the applicant has both the qualifications and experiences required for that job (same as Canadians). Then IF they are successfsul in their application which can take up to a year to process, they are bound to that employer for at least 2 years sometimes 3 years. If the employer does not support the application for their Permanent Residence then they can. be ordered to return to their country of origin.

@@Rocksteady-l8h But it is our responsibility not to let known terrorists into Canada in the first place. Way more known terrorists try to enter the US from Canada than from Mexico, which seems odd but it is true.
I'm not much for politicians. One thing Doug Ford said with which I agree. We (as a country) need to secure our borders, both provincially and federally. I'm thinking that's true to do before the Maga yahoos decide they're going to ride over here with guns blazing and try to take over Canada to make it a state, as their big daddy D suggested. Protect ourselves.
You don't have to worry about Americans coming up here, there's plenty of mouth-breathing Canadians and Lil' PP fans who'd love to hand everything over to Daddy Trump living here already.
Trump has often said he likes Canadians . It doesn’t surprise me he’d want to talk that’s the objective of his 25% tariff threat. If he didn’t say that would premiers be reacting in such a fashion. It wouldn’t surprise me in the long run, if Trump would be interested in making deals with the provinces, instead of the feds. The easiest way is for us, is let’s get our act together and deal with our borders and drugs.
Trump will just make up something else to go after his real target (bring down his $90B trade deficit with Canada). He is only using the cover of border and drugs because these deal with national security issues that he can act unilaterally to impose tariffs. Outside this, he must seek Congress' approval on tarrifs which may be difficult with the slim GOP majority and the several RINOs in congress.
Mr. Doug, stop beating the issue. Stop criminals crossing boarder to US. Stop drug crossing over, and stop making threats. Stop. Clearly, it is a sanction war you can not win. You seem to have a fairly good record, don't destroy it mow.
IT IS NOT CANADA'S JOB TO PROTECT THE US BORDER!!! THAT IS THEIR JOB. WE PROTECT PEOPLE COMING INTO CANADA, NOT GOING INTO THE US. THEIR BORDER GUARDS ARE SUPPOSED TO DO THAT!!!!!
I think the US gets 60% of their eggs from Canada, if Americans think they're overpaying for chicken embryos now wait until Trump's tariffs kick in, y'all will be laying them yourselves.
I ran a simple analysis on how costs to the US consumer could raise with a 25% tariff on everything. The most obvious part is the tariff itself as an input into the supply chain. The importer is going to raise his selling price to cover the tariff to some extent. What is forgotten in this whole mess is the sales taxes that end up being imposed on the inflated prices that the consumer will ultimately pay. The US taxes the sale of goods at each point in the supply chain. There is no Federal sales tax in the US like our GST/HST in Canada. Some states have sales taxes and some don't. In addition to the state tax, cities/counties can also impose a sales tax. The Importer pays the tariff, the wholesaler pays sales tax when buying from the importer, the retailer pays sales tax when buying from the wholesaler and the final consumer pays sales tax when buying from the retailer. I did a very simple calculation and came to an increase in sales taxes paid by 16.7% on the goods with the 25% tariff. This is often missed in the discussion of what it is going to cost the consumer. Our sales tax system in Canada is quite different. Tax paid as GST/HST through the supply chain is credited back to the companies paying the tax. It is the final purchaser that pays the sales tax. It's much more complex a system to administer but more equitable. Ford should take his nose out of this mess. He has no business dealing with a Federal matter. I'm pissed off at Trudeau too but this is has to be Federal with Provincial input and should be handled as a nation, not a province. While I'm really pissed at Trump and the Magwhacks and I really really would love to turn off the taps, it would feel good but ultimately tip us into a recession and we can't afford that. We need to stand firm as a country and not be stupid.
So this amounts to "We won't protect our border and we'll end power deals that have existed for a hundred years" Gee Doug, sounds like you behaved precisely like you wanted. You just showed Americans why they need energy independence...

To address *US concerns and Chinese unfair trade practices,* Canada 🇨🇦 needs to also impose 60% tariffs on all Chinese products. Additionally, Canada needs to impose - 10% on China's human rights violations, - 10% on Fentanyl tradficking - 10% on Taiwan Strait and South China Sea aggression.

@@perryfefchuk637 I am not a liberal, and his statement makes no sense, so that is why I asked my question. The tariff is created by a political leader to increase the value of goods that are imported within a country from what I learned resulting in possible loss of jobs from the people who are exporting goods, so if Canadians, and Mexicans are exporting goods to USA, and USA imposes a tariff on both countries then Canadians, and Mexicans who are at risk of losing their jobs.
Picking a fight with someone ten times bigger than you will just get you a beating. Trump is justifiably angry about some things, like terrorists sneaking into the US from Canada, and all Trudeau & Co. have to do to avoid these BIG problems with their biggest economic partner and best friend is sort our their immigration policy and make sure it is put into action.

He should go and ask how many men want to work more than 8 hours a day now. And then make deals for creation of jobs. He knows nothing about working conditions nowadays

People need to put their egos aside and stand as a unified group called Canada and not go on personal chest pounding and attention seeking gambits. People like DF are showing their utter ignorance about how to deal with a tyrant and threat to democracy.
Trump is not a tyrant. He cares about his people while ignorant prime minister doesn't care about us.

@IMayOrMayNotBeNoelG how many people on the T,s watch lists try and come into the US?
can you please learn to spell the word "border" before making claims?
And more than half the immigrants on the dangerous list came through the Canadian border. Wake up Canuck!
Why does Canada own $90billion in US real estate!?
The problem is not Mexico, the problem is the lack of our leaders negotiations skills .

@redcanoe14 Cause Trudeau allowed them all in that's why.
@@Dbodell8000 Well you need to examine the difference in immigration laws of the US as compared with Canada...here in Canada there is the Temporary Foreign Worker Program that Canadian Businesses can take advantage of ONLY if it can be proved that they cannot recruit Canadians AN D that the applicant has both the qualifications and experiences required for that job (same as Canadians). Then IF they are successfsul in their application which can take up to a year to process, they are bound to that employer for at least 2 years sometimes 3 years. If the employer does not support the application for their Permanent Residence then they can. be ordered to return to their country of origin. Again, TFW's can only be invited into Canada IF positions cannot be filled from within Canada.
@@Dbodell8000 We've had an open boarder with the US for literal decades and this wasn't even a notable issue for Trump last time he is in office. He doesn't give a damn about the Canadian boarder.
Doug Ford is so dumb. I can’t believe Rob Ford was his brother. Doug Ford is not even in the same grade as Trump. He is way out of his depth.
We are Canadians and we will never bow down for to a wannabe dictator. We need to be stronger,better and as we have always done stand fast for our country our beliefs and our values, we may suffer in some ways but the battle will be won through truth and higher standards of life.
you'd have to get rid of your emperor for any of that to happen.
Lol, you already do. What do you think Trudeau is?
well said
The deal is you shut up and go along with what he wants 🤦♂️ it’s a crack heads brother vs a business man…… YOU GET NOTHING GOOD SIR
Secure the borders, done deal.
Good idea. Tell me how you are going to do it.
There is no problem at the boarder , look at your own American numbers , do your own research . Stop listening to trumps lies it’s all bull and every Canadian knows this because we know enough not to trust anything ANY government says and we check . Wake up yanks
It's not Canada's responsibility to keep people from entering the US....

@@Rocksteady-l8h But it is our responsibility not to let known terrorists into Canada in the first place. Way more known terrorists try to enter the US from Canada than from Mexico, which seems odd but it is true.
You can't make a deal with this narcissist. He doesn't keep his word. We already renegotiated NAFTA with his own government!
Seat down together, please do not responded, like children on play ground! Please use clear vision not emotions!!!
I'm not much for politicians. One thing Doug Ford said with which I agree. We (as a country) need to secure our borders, both provincially and federally. I'm thinking that's true to do before the Maga yahoos decide they're going to ride over here with guns blazing and try to take over Canada to make it a state, as their big daddy D suggested. Protect ourselves.
Do you seriously believe American "yahoos" are going to go in with guns to "take" Canada?
You don't have to worry about Americans coming up here, there's plenty of mouth-breathing Canadians and Lil' PP fans who'd love to hand everything over to Daddy Trump living here already.
Trump respects money and power. Full stop
Yup and im one of em. Trump 2025 baby 🎉🎉🎉@lucasottens8506
What makes you think we want any part of Canada as a state. In fact, we wish you'd take NY, Washington and a few others. (Along with "Hollywood".)
Trump has often said he likes Canadians . It doesn’t surprise me he’d want to talk that’s the objective of his 25% tariff threat. If he didn’t say that would premiers be reacting in such a fashion.
It wouldn’t surprise me in the long run, if Trump would be interested in making deals with the provinces, instead of the feds. The easiest way is for us, is let’s get our act together and deal with our borders and drugs.
Trump will just make up something else to go after his real target (bring down his $90B trade deficit with Canada). He is only using the cover of border and drugs because these deal with national security issues that he can act unilaterally to impose tariffs. Outside this, he must seek Congress' approval on tarrifs which may be difficult with the slim GOP majority and the several RINOs in congress.
Well secure the open border. What it’s all about
Doug Ford has Canadian Tire Walmart Tiger Cat all Chinese manufacturing not Canadian for the most part
Mr. Doug, stop beating the issue. Stop criminals crossing boarder to US. Stop drug crossing over, and stop making threats. Stop.
Clearly, it is a sanction war you can not win.
You seem to have a fairly good record, don't destroy it mow.
Stop the guns,
You forgot that.
You do understand that it's not Canada's responsibility to keep people from entering the US?
Exactly, Funny the people that "Get It" Get it. The people that don't get what's going on will never "Get it". Go Trump !
IT IS NOT CANADA'S JOB TO PROTECT THE US BORDER!!! THAT IS THEIR JOB. WE PROTECT PEOPLE COMING INTO CANADA, NOT GOING INTO THE US. THEIR BORDER GUARDS ARE SUPPOSED TO DO THAT!!!!!
I think the US gets 60% of their eggs from Canada, if Americans think they're overpaying for chicken embryos now wait until Trump's tariffs kick in, y'all will be laying them yourselves.
I ran a simple analysis on how costs to the US consumer could raise with a 25% tariff on everything. The most obvious part is the tariff itself as an input into the supply chain. The importer is going to raise his selling price to cover the tariff to some extent. What is forgotten in this whole mess is the sales taxes that end up being imposed on the inflated prices that the consumer will ultimately pay.
The US taxes the sale of goods at each point in the supply chain. There is no Federal sales tax in the US like our GST/HST in Canada. Some states have sales taxes and some don't. In addition to the state tax, cities/counties can also impose a sales tax. The Importer pays the tariff, the wholesaler pays sales tax when buying from the importer, the retailer pays sales tax when buying from the wholesaler and the final consumer pays sales tax when buying from the retailer. I did a very simple calculation and came to an increase in sales taxes paid by 16.7% on the goods with the 25% tariff. This is often missed in the discussion of what it is going to cost the consumer.
Our sales tax system in Canada is quite different. Tax paid as GST/HST through the supply chain is credited back to the companies paying the tax. It is the final purchaser that pays the sales tax. It's much more complex a system to administer but more equitable.
Ford should take his nose out of this mess. He has no business dealing with a Federal matter. I'm pissed off at Trudeau too but this is has to be Federal with Provincial input and should be handled as a nation, not a province. While I'm really pissed at Trump and the Magwhacks and I really really would love to turn off the taps, it would feel good but ultimately tip us into a recession and we can't afford that. We need to stand firm as a country and not be stupid.
So this amounts to "We won't protect our border and we'll end power deals that have existed for a hundred years"
Gee Doug, sounds like you behaved precisely like you wanted. You just showed Americans why they need energy independence...
Ford is a sub politician Ontario could do better but they just keep putting their heads in the sand with these Ford Brothers.
our only choice is the Liberals who have made a mess that will take decades to fix, so you need to take your head out of the sand.

To address *US concerns and Chinese unfair trade practices,* Canada 🇨🇦 needs to also impose 60% tariffs on all Chinese products.
Additionally, Canada needs to impose
- 10% on China's human rights violations,
- 10% on Fentanyl tradficking
- 10% on Taiwan Strait and South China Sea aggression.
hhhhhh human rights. if you believe human rights. first care (america) there fifty states homeless and drug dealers.and justice system. women right.and so on

have a lot of electricity but have rolling blackouts in Toronto in the summer
Yeah Doug let’s get rid of one useless tool in the toolbox. You know what we mean.
The deal is Canada stop freeloading off the USA. Look after your side of the border. No deal necessary.
US needs to keep its nose out of Canada, we had the 1812 war to ensure they stayed over the line.
I recon if these tariffs are to much we just stop shipping water power and fuel south and be done with it build our own wall

China has tariffs. Mexico does not. Slapping made in Mexico on Chinese goods allows the Chinese to avoid tariffs and therefore take away jobs

@@perryfefchuk637 I am not a liberal, and his statement makes no sense, so that is why I asked my question.
The tariff is created by a political leader to increase the value of goods that are imported within a country from what I learned resulting in possible loss of jobs from the people who are exporting goods, so if Canadians, and Mexicans are exporting goods to USA, and USA imposes a tariff on both countries then Canadians, and Mexicans who are at risk of losing their jobs.
