Last Updated Monday, February 28, 2022 5:49PM ESTto support its fight against a Russian invasion, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Monday, and it will ban imports of Russian crude oil.'s heroic defense against the Russian military," Trudeau told reporters in Ottawa. "We are announcing our intention to ban all imports of crude oil from Russia, an industry that has benefited President Putin and his oligarchs greatly.
Canada is the world's fourth-largest oil producer, but the vast majority comes from Alberta, far from eastern Canadian refineries owned by Irving Oil, Suncor Energyand Cresta Fund Management. Eastern refiners import oil on the spot market when needed, as well as fuels to meet demand during maintenance shutdowns, said David Schick, a vice-president with the Canadian Fuels Association.
In 2021, shipments included naphtha and diesel to Valero's Quebec refinery and deliveries of diesel and gasoline to a refinery in Newfoundland & Labrador, now owned by Cresta Fund Management, said Jim Mitchell, head of Americas Oil Analysts at Refinitiv.Irving said it does not import Russian oil, a spokeswoman said. Suncor, Valero and Cresta did not immediately respond.
Understand that Russia was sanctioned. Attempts were made to destroy their economy, destabilize their govt. The US supported, trained and armed far-right neo-Nazi paramilitary militias in Ukraine with military attacks on the 2 independent republics.
