Looks like we'll have plenty of oil for decades to come, from another friendly, English speaking, Christian nation.
Sadly for the Canadians wanting to divert their Keystone XL pipeline from the USA to China, the Aussies might be the Chinese supplier of choice. Canadians will be stuck with idiotic US regulations around the Keystone XL, which, despite the fact that pipelines cross huge sections of the USA, has fired the imaginations of Sierra Club Activists and their minions trying to revive their relevance from 1976, regardless of millions of regulations that have been emplaced since then.
The silver lining will be that companies fed-up with Moronic Anti-Fracking Wackos in the USA can export their assets and employment opportunities to Australia: But since there are few people to employ, they'll need to import talent from the USA.
