The energy industry is frustrated and taking it to the road; U.S. leaving Syria, could cause major catastrophe

The Roy Green Show Podcast

-

U.S. troops will withdraw from Syria on the direct order of President Donald Trump. This is a key reason for why General James Mattis resigned as Secretary of Defense this week. Our guest is Former U.S. Navy Lt Commander Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, the President of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy. He says that this is a bad decision which will escalate and cause more turmoil in the region.

A new Leger Poll for the Montreal Economic Institute shows that 66% of Quebecers would prefer their oil come from Western Canada. Only 7% said they would want oil from U.S. If this is the case, then is Canada's Prime Minister talking out of both sides of his mouth?

Truck convoys formed today in Brooks, Alberta and Estevan, Saskatchewan, in support of the energy industry. This comes after the 22km long, 1000 truck Nisku convoy in Alberta earlier in the week. Roy speaks with Global News Reporter Kyle Benning, who is with the Brooks convoy, and President of the Canadian Association of Oilwell Drilling Contractors Mark Schultz. And later he is joined by Laurie Ryan of Laurlee Energy Services Ltd., organizer of the 1000 truck long convoy in Nisku.

And why did a 61% majority of British Columbians vote to retain the first-past-the-post electoral process?
