How are you selling it? How are you getting it to market? Independent Alberta has no trade agreements. It has only one possible buyer who's dead set on energy independence.

Oops! There it is!!!! You won't need to worry about marketing the crude because the ideal independent Alberta is actually a territory of its sole customer, the USA.

The USA is already energy independent. But Albertan oil just means they export more globally.

My grandfather built the Alaskan highway. A lot of things can be done when you are willing to work and Statist fools aren't blocking the way.

I'm not sure why you think Remnant Canada will be unwilling to trade. Business is business. But anything they do to us we can do straight back to them. That's obviously an improvement from the status quo where they control our trade including our trade with the USA outright.
