Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Well they have had it good for some 50 odd years, with multi-billion dollars in revenue and now they are going to start crying…?
Oh please…so American ingenuity is somehow the reason for Saudi oil sheik ‘poverty’?
I think that concept is going to be a tough sell…

If the Saudis invested everything they could spare into US shale, could they significantly distort the market?
I wonder if there’ll be chirping on the left about this? Something to the effect of .. “Shale oil risks global security because the US can take unilateral military action without disrupting their oil supply.”
The number one reason I hope they find a true oil & gas energy replacement in the west!
Then making all flights to the desert a one way trip.
Yeah well this is not news.
Who the hell didja think bankrolled Matt Damen’s fantasy “Gasland”, Tides US (and Canada)and bought the US 2012 election?
The US donkey party needs Saudi cash to retain power so don’t expect OBOZO to approve Keystone XL or lease Federal Lands.
Question is now OBOZO has his own de facto party, will he abandon the DNC? What’s the odds that the DNC or the Saudi’s, depending on his moves, will do “something rash”?
Remember LBJ et al, remain prime suspects for Dallas………
Aren’t these the same guys that have been giving background financial support to any and all ‘environmental/native/leftist/malcontent group that fights against any improvements in North America’s domestic supply?
ie Fracking/oil sands/nuclear.

“Remember LBJ et al, remain prime suspects for Dallas……… ”
his man was the second shooter on the north grassy knoll, behind the white picket fence. In 1984 there were 2 casings found behind that fence, one consistant with James Files assertion that he fire a fireball XP-100, and the other one a question mark
as to the topic, wait till the terrorist exporters grasp the concept that Australia has discovered a reserve that dwarfs anything in NA, back to camels fer sure!!!
Need a magnifying glass so I can find the world’s smallest violin….
King Abdullah (slave of Allah) might have to use last years Mercedes-Benz limousine in order to economise. I counted five of them in this convoy between the airport and the palace.

Sasquatch is right. The Saudis don’t like Keystone XL and they don’t like Northern Gateway either. Both serve to add more non-OPEC oil into the international oil market.
But, where do the Saudis’ stand on electric cars? And, and, and solar energy and wind power? And nuclear energy. Aren’t these things are threat to their oil business? And don’t they even CARE about global warming? Oh never mind.
Not to worry, barry will get them Obama phones and put them all on food stamps courtesy of the American Taxpayer.
Wouldn’t Saudi Arabia (and countries in that geographic location)be the ones to benefit from solar-generated power? Realistically, what’s the loss of covering miles and miles of non-arable desert with a bunch of mirrors?
Cover Arabia with manufactured glass? Coals to Newcastle.
Surely you mean “What’s the loss of turning miles of miles of non-arable desert into a sea of radioactive glass?”
The answer, of course, is precisely nothing.
Hence the Saudis have good reason to fear the day that the infidels become self-sufficient in energy and run out of reasons not to get serious about fighting Islam. If done properly, the outcome will be the destruction of Islam as a military and political force in a matter of hours, the reduction of the cities of the Islamic world to highly radioactive ash, and the loss of absolutely nothing of value.
You beat me to the punchline. I had made the same observation about Afghanistan on my first tour in ’07.
Should those sand monkey’s want to learn how to frack alberta could sell them the equipment and know how…this is now an annual event.

Afraid of being priced out of the market? That has always been the fear of the Saudis. Glad we could intensify that dread.
Now maybe they can look after their own people, like Egyptians instead of funding Islamist killers while exporting fanatical mosques full of Islamist infiltrators.
I don’t care about Saudi Arabia.
When the wells supplying the fresh water in Yemen are fully brackish in a few years, I won’t care.
It is bad for the Alberta oil sands, unless the extraction technology there can be made less expensive. Oil sands oil is currently considerably more expensive than shale oil. The consequences may not be overly pleasant. The Keystone XL pipeline is probably a moot issue now. China may well continue in its desire for oil sands oil, as it may be excluded from Bakken oil. Fortunately, the Bakken does extend into SK.
Bell Island, NL is instructive in this regard. It is just outside of St. John’s BTW. It was a major source of iron ore for perhaps 60 years. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_Island
Cheaper, surface sources of iron ore were found, and that was pretty much the end of Bell Island. There is still plenty of iron ore there, but it is no longer economical to mine. Bell Island is now little more than a picturesque dormitory suburb of St. John’s.
