This week, FP Video looks at the United States’ arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and what it means for the oil markets, producers, prices, Canadian industry and national security. Plus, Peter MacKay weighs in on Donald Trump’s desires for territorial expansion in Greenland, and what it means for Arctic sovereignty.

A year ago, Canada was focused on Trump’s tariff threats. Now, U.S. intervention in Venezuela is dominating the moment. As before, the stakes for America’s closest allies are high, and the situation is changing fast.

Rory Johnston, founder Commodity Context, talks about the impact of U.S. actions in Venezuela on Canadian producers, oil prices and which oil companies might benefit.

Peter MacKay, former foreign affairs minister, talks about the return of the Monroe Doctrine and U.S. designs on the Arctic.
