    Canada also produces oil. So why does what fuckheads in places like Russia and Saudi Arabia affect oil prices in Canada?

    Seems like in a capitalist world, markets are global and instability anywhere in the world affects the prices of resources that are traded globally. Being dependent on those resources means wars need to be fought to secure those resources to keep the prices stable.
