Canada’s announced contribution of 23.6 million barrels appears to be largely drawn from production increases that were already planned.This episode of Tap the Maple breaks down how Canada’s energy policies over the past decade have weakened our ability to act as a global supplier, and why Pierre Poilievre’s warnings about Canada’s export capacity may now be proving correct.
