"As a major energy producer, Canada has the ability, and the obligation, to be a part of this important effort," Natural Resources Minister John Efford said in a release.

Granted that the result for the moment is good, but this shouldn't merely be a momentary response. Hopefully it'll instead be an opportunity for people to learn some good habits which can carry over long after the U.S.' refining capacity is back to normal.
