Vancouver Sun: Canada's oil, gas catching Europe's eye amid ongoing troubles in Ukraine

The Russian invasion of Crimea is making Alberta's oil and gas more attractive in European capitals, says Poland's ambassador to Canada.

Poland supports the idea of importing Canadian oil and gas, envoy Marcin Bosacki said Wednesday prior to the start of a two-day visit to his country by Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird.

"This point of view is being shared in a growing number of European capitals in the last two months since the Crimea invasion," Bosacki said.

"Of course, we are absolutely in favour of increasing the abilities of ... western Canada oil and gas to be exported also to Europe."
