onlinedesign says:

The US makes about 5 million barrels of petroleum per day. Then, we import twice as much: <10 million barrels per day.

So how much petroleum product do we actually consume in a day?

Over 20 million barrels of petroleum a day. That's staggering!

Canada is the largest supplier of petroleum to the US, then Saudi Arabia, then...Mexico!

I never knew that.

I did not know that either! Canada? With Mexico third on the list, maybe that's why the US is so lenient with certain "issues."

Kind of a myth-buster fact here.
