If you took 9th grade science you would know that bitumen is a form of crude oil and then you wouldn't have written this pretentious post making a point based purely in semantics.

When we sell ninety percent of our oil to the states, we actually kind of need them too.

Canadian oil is produced by private companies. 90% of oil is sent to the US.

Its a huge leverage point but it would absolutely devastate the canadian economy to do that.

We arent trying to self immolate here.

Because ease of use and simplicity go a long way.

Its about mass appeal, not quality.

For one, we're talking federal.

Its widely considered as the standard metric for general intelligence.

That's not to say it is perfect or doesnt have gaps, it doesn't assess creativity, EQ, rational thinking, wisdom or impacts from socioeconomic.

However what is does measure are things like abstract reasoning, pattern recognition, working memory.

Its one of the strongest single predictors of academic performance, job complexity learning, and overall occupational success, and those things pretty obviously correlated with general intelligence.
