I have been led to believe china has no energy under their region. Source for your claim? I'd like to know more.

Also, Canada isn't dumb. We are controlled by evil forces, like everywhere else. Canada was on its way to being a leading energy producer a few decades back. Then the government passed a law that made the business environment so nasty that all the companies left or went bankrupt. It took almost 40 years to get the Alberta Oil patch back to where it was after this disaster. Now these same evil forces won't let us build any refineries by making it too expensive to even consider starting such a project.

Perhaps we are dumb for electing the same people over and over who fuck with us like this. But then again the same could be said for every "free" country.

China is ranked 13th in the world in untapped "usable" oil. This doesn't include petroleum that the technology hasn't been developed yet to extract. It's also ranked 1st in the world for "strategic reserves" (that means all of YOUR oil that they are sitting on). This is common knowledge found on Wikipedia and other easily accessed sources.
