Energy question for Federal Candidates

Post Carbon Toronto members have been asking their candidates the following question:
Surprisingly, even though Canada is a net oil exporter, Canada imports almost half our daily oil needs from Iraq, Algeria and other far away countries.

This leaves millions of Canadians exposed to disruptions on the world oil market.




What would your party do to erase these infrastructure deficits and ensure Canadian energy security?
