What would happen to our fuel prices if we stopped exports of diesel and gasoline?
According to Industry Facts , in 2025 Canada consumed over:
> 742,000 barrels of gasoline per day
> 503,000 barrels of diesel per day
According to AI using the Canada Energy Regulator to break down the numbers, Canada exports:
> 400,000 barrels of gasoline per day
> 150,000 barrels of diesel per day

I understand the product flow is limited by pipeline capacity, mostly flowing south, but if the barrier was removed, would this be a net gain for Canada by lowering fuel prices, thereby lowering the cost of living?
