It is completely humiliating that Canada hasn't imposed a fee on oil exports to the United States. We are refusing to play the one card we have to deal with Trump's tariffs, in order to pander to an Albertan government that's siding with the Americans anyways. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/danielle-smith-american-alcohol-trump-tariffs-9.7284410

@steven@zeroes.ca India does oil export tax. Today in New Delhi, India's most populated city the cost of gas is 102.2 Rupees/ L or CA$ 1.47/ L In Toronto, Canada's most populated gas is CA$ 1.79/L Vancouver > CA$2.00 L The bulk of that 30 to 50 cent a liter difference goes out of Canada to US shareholders never to return to Canada's economy. India's gas export tax rate is reviews every two weeks A gas export tax would impact Canada's Big5 bank profitability.
