That is a bright side to all this. Companies are definitely going to be putting the thinking caps on.

Also, Canada is likely to suddenly come to life and start figuring out better ways to pull all the oil out of the ground under their country. And unlike Alaska, there is some serious oil in Canada. It's in sand though, so it's expensive to process it, but since it comes from this continent it doesn't support terrorists.
