The United States and Canada, while independent countries, effectively comprise a single integrated market for petroleum and natural gas. Canada is the single largest foreign supplier of petroleum products and natural gas to the United States -- and the United States is the dominant consumer of Canada's energy exports. The value of the petroleum and natural gas trade between the two countries totaled nearly $100 billion in 2010, helping to promote general economic growth and directly support thousands of energy industry and related jobs on both sides of the border. Increased energy trade between the United States and Canada -- a stable, friendly neighbor -- is viewed by many as a major contributor to U.S. energy security. The U.S.-Canada energy relationship is increasingly complex, however, and is undergoing fundamental change, particularly in the petroleum and natural gas sectors. Traditionally, the energy trade between the United States and Canada, while intertwined, has been uncomplicated -- taking the form of a steadily growing southward flow of crude oil and natural gas to markets in the U.S. Midwest and Northeast. But recent developments have greatly complicated that energy relationship creating new competition and interconnections. Consequently, while energy policies in one country have always inevitably affected the other, their cross-cutting effects in the future may not be widely understood and, in some cases, may be largely unanticipated. How such scenarios could play out in reality is open to debate, but they illustrate the tangled web policymakers in both countries must navigate as they consider future energy, environmental, and transportation decisions.

In view of the growing potential for transborder movements of natural gas, the Canadian-American Committee has sponsored this study of natural gas problems in North America. The study includes a brief appraisal of the development of this industry in Canada and the United States, as well as an assessment of potential natural gas resources. It describes in some detail the legislative background and the regulations which have influenced the development to date, and which will have an important bearing on the future course of gas transfers between Canada and the United States. The study is essentially an economic report; it does not attempt to assess political questions. It is also a factual report: Its principal purpose is to describe and analyze relevant information , not to set forth policy conclusions.

The approach used in this study is twofold: First, I consider the actual prospects of coal as a major alternative to oil, natural gas, and possibly nuclear power in the coming decades. Appraisals are made of how much coal is likely to be used and the specific forms this use will take....Second, having made such an appraisal for the U.S. coal industry, I then turn to its implications for Canadian customers. A key concern is whether traditional sources of coal from the United States will become "unavailable" as a result of chnages in U.S. coal and supply conditions.

This book, the 32nd volume in the Canada Among Nations series, looks to the wide array of foreign policy challenges, choices and priorities that Canada confronts in relations with the US where the line between international and domestic affairs is increasingly blurred. In the context of the Canada-US relationship, this blurring is manifest as a cooperative effort by officials to manage aspects of the relationship in which bilateral institutional cooperation goes on largely unnoticed. Chapters in this volume focus on longstanding issues reflecting some degree of Canada-US coordination, if not integration, such as trade, the environment and energy. Other chapters focus on emerging issues such as drug policies, energy, corruption and immigration within the context of these institutional arrangements.
