It's Canadian and it's not crude oil. It's bitumen and it's hard to clean up.
Now if you had been paying attention you would certainly remember that during the height of the pandemic crude oil was trading at -$35 a barrel. That's right. If you Wally were an oil driller you would have had to PAY the refiner $35 per barrel to refine your oil.

In addition OPEC has made it clear that they like 60 buck oil too and will not put any additional oil on the market beyond the agreed to 400,000 barrels a day.
