yes it is..
we can't even get that oil to market in significant quantities.. so the appreciation is speculation on us being able to in the future.
Oh we can. Will an expansion in production be possible? It already is. Oil exports would have to increase by a pretty large margin for it to be above capacity. Just because keystone xl expansion was cancelled doesn't mean that three other major expansions didn't go through.
The biggest buyer will be the US who, for some reason, shot themselves in the foot on oil.
We are producing more oil than ever and we are bringing it to market. Even while Trudeau is promising to "decarbonize" our economy.

Same thing happened under Harper when the Loonie reached parity with the USD. Oil price back then was even higher.
