Could Canada really stop oil flow to the US in response to Trump tariffs?
Al JazeeraCanada, which sends nearly all its crude oil to the United States, has little leverage because the US is the destination for most Canadian exports. However, blocking crude oil flow to the US could inflict an enormous economic cost on Canada, which pumps nearly all of its crude oil to the US via a network of pipelines. The crude oil is carried through pipelines passing through the US to reach Canada’s east coast provinces, including Ontario and Quebec, where it is refined. “When pipelines are full, it will be very hard to find space for an additional 4 million barrels a day.” De Silva added that if Canada’s government decides to cut off the oil supply to the US, there would also be a question mark over how the eastern parts of Canada – Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick – would get their oil. De Silva explained that banning oil exports to the US would also have a very negative impact on Canada’s own economy.
