Isn't energy nationalized in Canada?

Some electrical power is generated and distributed by crown corporations, some by private corporations. Oil, natural gas and coal are all produced and refined and distributed by private corporations. Whether publicly or privately produced and distributed, exports can be taxed or stopped, as government sees fit.

The Trump administration signaled a vulnerability by setting the tariff on energy imports at 10%, with 25% on all other goods. If I was Doug Ford, I wouldn't be in such a hurry to open the breakers. We should keep some powder dry and just set an export tariff of 15% on energy first and see how that goes.

Ok, I will let you throttle up that tariff then. You convinced me.
