It's a painful 23 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 2: reminder that anti Semitism and intolerance are alive and well. 24 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: In this country. 25 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 2: The FBI says it was a targeted attack and an 26 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 2: act of terrorism, and the shooter was just charged a 27 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,759 Speaker 2: few minutes ago with two counts of murder of foreign officials. 28 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: We have lots more of that all over at justinews 29 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 2: dot com. Now tonight, we're going to do a deep 30 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: dive into one of the biggest challenges America faces dealing 31 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: with our neighbors to the north in Canada, in the 32 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 2: air of Trump tariffs, no future trade deal will be 33 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 2: watched more closely than the one Trump in Canadian Prime 34 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 2: Minister Mark Carney will try to negotiate in the coming weeks. 35 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 2: The future of America's economy, its energy security, and the 36 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: heights of its energy hungry artificial intelligence revolution will be 37 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 2: defined greatly by what comes of those negotiations. Tonight, you're 38 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 2: going to come face to face with the players on 39 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 2: the front lines of this high stakes drama. They include 40 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 2: oil and gas CEOs on both sides of the border. 41 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 2: The US Ambassador to Canada, petex Oaks Stress, someone you 42 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: know pretty well and for the first time on this show. 43 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 2: The premiere of Canada's energy and mineral rich province of Alberta, 44 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 2: Danielle Smith guess what her voters may soon decide whether 45 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 2: that province will succeed from Canada in protest of the 46 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 2: Canadian federal government's energy stifling climate agenda. 47 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: Tonight is a chance for. 48 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 2: All of us to get educated on this generation defining 49 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 2: moment between Canada and the United States. Amanda, this is 50 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 2: on show on Mike, a show we've ever done before. 51 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 2: Pretty big good discussion, big big risks in gains potentially 52 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: ahead for America. 53 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 3: Absolutely, I can't wait to hear from the premiere because 54 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,239 Speaker 3: this is a beautiful, beautiful province in Canada, probably one 55 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 3: of the most resource rich and yet abused by Ottawa. 56 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 3: So I'm looking very forward to talking to her. But 57 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 3: you're right, I mean, this is a relationship that goes 58 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 3: beyond economic ties, beyond trade, beyond energy. It's a we've 59 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 3: always historically and traditionally had a very close relationship because 60 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,959 Speaker 3: of our similar values. So to work out the other 61 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 3: things I think behooves both countries. So I'm looking forward 62 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 3: to figuring out how we do that. 63 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, Danielle Smith, the premier we're going to meet in 64 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 2: the third block of the show, compared to President Trump, 65 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 2: sort of the mag of Canada. We've been told. I 66 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 2: can't wait to have that interview. The future of our 67 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 2: two countries are going to be defined, and it could 68 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 2: be very different depending on how all this works out. 69 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 2: That's why we're having this conversation tonight. 70 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 4: All right. 71 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: Just a little while ago, Man and I got a 72 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 2: chance to sit down with the CEOs of two of 73 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: Canada's largest energy companies control a good part of the 74 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 2: oil and gas that comes out of Alberta. We learned 75 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 2: a lot of fact that was shocked about what's going 76 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: on behind the scenes of this trade deal. Have to 77 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 2: listen to what we just had a conversation over all right, 78 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 2: joining us now a geologist and the founder and CEO 79 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 2: of Tomally Oil, on the largest cast companies in Canada. 80 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: Micro sir, good to. 81 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: Have you on. 82 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 4: Great Thanks for having me. 83 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 2: I don't think a lot of people understand just how 84 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: integrated the Canadian and US energy markets are. And there 85 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 2: was a little bit of friction now but just at 86 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: the political level, but day to day Canada America when 87 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: it comes to energy, we're sewed together pretty tightly, aren't we? 88 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 4: Absolutely, And we've been working together for years. 89 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: We move one and a. 90 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 5: Quarter of BCF a day to markets, certain markets within 91 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 5: the US and love doing it. And my two favorite 92 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 5: directors of Termaline are actually U S e MP people. 93 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: How about that? 94 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 6: I love that. 95 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 3: I love that. So when it comes to important export 96 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 3: amounts between your country and our country, what does that 97 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 3: look like? 98 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 5: Well, Canada ships, you know in the winter up to 99 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 5: nine bcf a day to the US certain parts of 100 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 5: the US that are serviced by the pipelines that we use. 101 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 5: So large parts of the US don't use Canadian gas, 102 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 5: but you know, the Midwest, California depends quite heavily on 103 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 5: natural gas, and there's about four million barrels a day 104 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 5: of refinery friendly Canadian heavyish oil that makes it into 105 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 5: the US refining areas and they depend on that oil. 106 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 5: And so yeah, we're we move hydrocarbons back and forth 107 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 5: across the border for each other's benefit. 108 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: Amazing. 109 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 2: We're about to enter into an era of extraordinary energy demand. 110 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 2: The artificial intelligence era is going to put a lot 111 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 2: of stress on our energy system to get more and 112 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 2: more and more. What are some of the opportunities for 113 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 2: Canada to help fulfill America's voracious appetite for oil and gas. 114 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 5: Well, we can increase our exports of natural gas certainly, 115 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,119 Speaker 5: and Canada is just about to enter the world element 116 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 5: g market. We've been shipping gas US to the Gulf 117 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 5: Coast for over two years now to the liquefaction complex 118 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 5: down there, and then AI on both sides of the 119 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 5: border is an added sleeve of demand that, to be fair, 120 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 5: I don't think you know, really most of us on 121 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 5: the producing side, we're thinking about two years ago. And 122 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 5: I just hope AI doesn't get good enough to replace geologists. 123 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're going to work on that. 124 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, glet just have a great subset of knowledge, and 125 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 3: I think it's more nuanced than a computer can figure out. 126 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 3: I hope anyway, me too. When it comes to economic growth, 127 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 3: that is something that President Trump talked about in his 128 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 3: first term and of course this turn this term as well. 129 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 3: And I know Canada is in desperate need of a 130 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 3: growing economy as well. How can energy help drive that? 131 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 5: Well, the Canadian energy sector actually offers the country, our country, 132 00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 5: the greatest short term economic growth that we have. I mean, 133 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 5: we're blessed with an abundance of resources, but the shortest cycle. 134 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 4: Deliverable is really oil and gas. 135 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 5: And we have the capability to in very short order 136 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 5: increase our gas production by fifty percent and our oil 137 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 5: production by between twenty five and fifty percent. And I 138 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 5: think Canada had the worst GDP growth per capita in 139 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 5: the last decade in the g twenty. So yeah, we've 140 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 5: got some work to do, and we'd love to work 141 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 5: with whatever government is here to make that happen. 142 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so important. Americans. 143 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 2: Remember the excitement about having the Trans Canada pipeline and 144 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 2: then it disappearing because of a regulatory battle. 145 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: Here in the United States. 146 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 2: Is there a moment ahead to be talking about a 147 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,119 Speaker 2: new set of pipelines between Canada and Canada the United States, 148 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: maybe from all the way down to Houston. Is that 149 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 2: a reality something that's being talked about behind the scenes. 150 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 5: I think it's being talked about behind the scenes. I 151 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 5: think you're referring to Keystone XCEL. I'm sorry, and you 152 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 5: know it got pulled. I've been kind of pushing up 153 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 5: here for some time that you know, we can think 154 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 5: about Keystone XL again and should and when we do, 155 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 5: we should build a gas pipeline too and take it 156 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 5: straight to the Gulf, and that'll be great for both 157 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 5: countries because the Gulf Coast liquefaction complex in the United 158 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 5: States is, you know, in the process of doubly and 159 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 5: I think there's going to be an increasing call on 160 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 5: gas from the Western Canadian sedimentary basin as well as 161 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 5: the three big supply basins in the United States. So 162 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 5: it's a golden age of gas, is what I call it. 163 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 5: The only problem is I've been when I made that slide, 164 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 5: it was nine years ago, but I think it's finally here. 165 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 3: S speaking of pipelines, hot button issue the Constitution pipeline 166 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,719 Speaker 3: and a President Trump met with Kathy Hokel was that 167 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 3: a couple of months ago and they supposedly talked about 168 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 3: and talked about it. But what do you know on 169 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 3: your side of the border as far as if that 170 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 3: is going to move to development? 171 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, probably not a lot more than you. 172 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 5: But you know, we need all pipelines and new ones, 173 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 5: and there already are a lot of pipelines for people 174 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 5: that you know, feel. 175 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 4: They need to block them. If you actually look at 176 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 4: a map on. 177 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 5: Both sides of the border, there are a lot of 178 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 5: pipelines that are operating safely all the time, and the 179 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 5: new ones the way they're designed and built, will be 180 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 5: safer yet still, so we need them all. We've got 181 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 5: huge energy demand growth in both of our countries and really. 182 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 4: Around the world, and energy sourcing. 183 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 5: It's a it's an end discussion, not or we need 184 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 5: more of everything. 185 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, we do. So I got about the middle of 186 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: that real quickly. 187 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 2: Obviously, Canada has a you know, prime minister who's as 188 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 2: a strong aggressive climate change agenda. America has a president 189 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 2: who wants to grow that energy. What are the ways 190 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: that industry can work even as the politics of the 191 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 2: two leaders work out. 192 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 5: I think, you know, we can find that balance between 193 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 5: energy in the environment. You know, Canada produces a monks well, 194 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 5: I think we produce the lowest emission natural gas in 195 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 5: the world. So there's a really strong environmental story and 196 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 5: a really strong economic revenue growth story and they go together. 197 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 5: And we want Canada and the US to be the 198 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 5: world's energy superpower. 199 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 4: That's what we're promoting. 200 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 5: You know, of the ten largest oil and gas producers 201 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 5: in the world, only two of them are democracies. Ten 202 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 5: in the United States, and I think we should run 203 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 5: the table and we should lead the world and responsibly 204 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 5: produce low emission hydergardons. 205 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't have to be an either or scenario, 206 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: as a sometimes falsely portray Sure. Yeah, Micros founder, CEO 207 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 2: and chairman of Tomberlino. 208 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,959 Speaker 1: Great to have you one, Thanks for joining us. 209 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, thanks for having me. That was fun. 210 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, what a great conversation. 211 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: All right, folks, to run away to another leader in 212 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 2: the energy sector in our neighbor to the Northern Canada, 213 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,239 Speaker 2: the President and CEO Ofventive, Brendan mccrackett. 214 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: Brendon, we're gat to have you on the show. 215 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 7: Hey, John, great to be here. 216 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 1: We we love having you on. This is an extraordinary moment. 217 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 2: I know a lot of people worry about, well how 218 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 2: well Canada and US work out its differences at the 219 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 2: political level, But below the political level, the integration, the 220 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 2: work between American energy and Canadian energy. It's stronger and 221 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 2: growing faster than I think anytime in my career. Tell 222 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 2: us a little bit about what you see behind the 223 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 2: scenes that most Americans might not see. 224 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I mean you said the keyword there 225 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 6: was his integration. You know, I think you know when 226 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 6: we zoom out and look at the energy dominance agenda 227 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 6: that we've now seen unveil both in the US and Canada. 228 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 6: You know, one of things that we see is the 229 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,359 Speaker 6: US is energy independent in the sense that it produces 230 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 6: more oil than it consumes. But when you dig under 231 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 6: that headline, there's some important details. So here in the 232 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 6: US we actually import forty percent of our oil consumption, 233 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 6: and Canada is the dominant supplier of that imported oil. 234 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 6: And every basin in the world produces oil with different compositions, 235 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 6: and as a function of the producing basins we have 236 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 6: here in the US, we're long light oil and short 237 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 6: heavy oil, and Canada is the exact opposite. It's long 238 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 6: heavy oil and short light oil. And that's made for 239 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 6: a great match and in fact has been for the 240 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,359 Speaker 6: US consumer a huge buy low and sell high advantage 241 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 6: because they've been able to buy Canadian energy at a 242 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 6: discount to global prices. On the natural gas side, it's 243 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 6: not quite as pronounced, but the US still is a 244 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 6: net importer of Canadian gas. We import about nine percent 245 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 6: of our natural gas consumption and Canada is the only 246 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:48,199 Speaker 6: supplier of that import. So Mike I mentioned this is 247 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 6: a great news story for American consumers. The US gets 248 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 6: that Canadian energy at a discount. Looking over the past 249 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 6: several years, the interconnectedness of our energy systems have meant 250 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 6: that the US gets Adian oil at about a twenty 251 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 6: percent discount and Canadian national gas set up to a 252 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 6: sixty percent discount to global prices. So it's been a 253 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,839 Speaker 6: really powerful part of the economic engine for Americans. 254 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: That's a pretty good deal. 255 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 3: Brendan, I think of three things, oil, cattle, and rodeos. 256 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 3: And I'm not talking about Texas. I'm talking about Alberta. 257 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 3: How does Alberta You know, you've got a different political 258 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 3: climate in Ottawa certainly than you do in Ottawa. How 259 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 3: do they manage that political difference and still manage to 260 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 3: be so profitable when it comes to the energy sector. 261 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 6: Well, I think this is the great thing about the 262 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 6: two countries. You know, we have shared values and in 263 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 6: a lot. 264 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 7: Of ways of shared history. 265 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 6: And today what we're seeing on the agenda in both 266 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 6: the United States and Canada is this energy dominance policy approach, 267 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 6: and we see that as one of the biggest strategic 268 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 6: advantages for both the United States and Canada. You know, 269 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 6: think about how the role energy is playing for US today. Affordable, reliable, 270 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 6: safe and secure energy underpins everything in our modern lives, 271 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 6: all the way from the mobility that we enjoy, the 272 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 6: process heat that lets us produce the steel and concrete 273 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 6: that fuel our industry, the fertilizer that we depend on 274 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 6: in our food supply, to the electricity that's running our technology, which, 275 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 6: by the way, is about to see a huge energy 276 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 6: demand exposion explosion due to artificial intelligence. So I think, 277 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 6: you know, you've got just three great reasons why energy 278 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 6: dominance should be a North American answer. The economics, the geography, 279 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 6: and the shared values. And you know, I've already described 280 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 6: the interdependence and the price advantage that the US has 281 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 6: to access Canadian energy. But from an economics perspective, the 282 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 6: two most economic basins in the world today are the 283 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 6: Permian in West Texas and the Mamani in Alberta and 284 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 6: British Columbia. These are the lowest cost sorts of energy 285 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 6: supply that it's reliable in the world today, and it 286 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 6: just makes economic sense for our two countries to cooperate 287 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 6: and have production from these resources. And the geography is 288 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 6: just a natural fit as well. You know the same 289 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 6: reason that our two countries are working together on defense, 290 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 6: is the same reason that we should be working together 291 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 6: on energy. We're just deeply interconnected because we're neighbors. And 292 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 6: then finally, we just have a long history of share values. 293 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 6: You know, bo, both countries have the highest standards for 294 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 6: rule of law, free market safety, protection of the environment, 295 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 6: and human rights. And that doesn't mean we always agree 296 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 6: on everything, and that's okay, but we've worked and thought 297 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 6: for these values together for a long time. 298 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, and I think they will. 299 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 2: Those values and those relationships are going to withstand any 300 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 2: temporary political climate that we're in. I want to ask 301 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 2: the same question I asked Mikeros, and that is, do 302 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 2: you think there is a moment in the near future 303 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 2: where we'll see new pipeline construction between Canada and the 304 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 2: United State's both oil and gas, and do you think 305 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 2: Canadian companies may create more They already have quite a 306 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 2: few subsidies, but more American subsidiaries to work around terraficies. 307 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 6: You know, I think on the interconnectedness through the pipelines, 308 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 6: I think that will come. I think, you know, today, 309 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 6: obviously Canada is looking to global markets and accessing accessing 310 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 6: global markets for their exports. 311 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 7: But think about the world's energy needs. 312 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 6: Here, we're talking about a thirty percent growth and energy 313 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 6: needs across the world that's going to be driven by prosperity, 314 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 6: you know, billions of people becoming more prosperous and requiring 315 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 6: more energy in their daily lives. 316 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 7: But also the data side. 317 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 6: Of this and the artificial intelligence side of this is 318 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 6: going to drive a massive energy growth, energy requirement growth, 319 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 6: and so it's going to be I think very much 320 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 6: Canada in the US are going to continue to interconnect 321 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 6: our two markets over time. 322 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's going to be an extraordinary thing to watch, 323 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 2: as it has been for the last decade too, because 324 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 2: a lot of progress has been made in the last decade. 325 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 2: Brenda McCracken, President and CEO of Event is great to 326 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 2: have you on the show. 327 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: To you, thanks for joining us. Thanks John, Yeah, I 328 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: really enjoyed that conversation. 329 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 2: All right, folks, after the break, we're gonna talk to 330 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 2: the American side of things with US Oil and Gas 331 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 2: Association President, good friend of the show, Tim Stewart. 332 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 1: Right after these messages,
