Country of the year

Industry Minister Jim Prentice found himself in Houston Monday giving a breakfast speech on the grand occasion of Canada being named "Country of the Year" by Energy Magazine at an Offshore Technology Conference. Energy Magazine says "Country of the Year" honours nations "that provide much-needed energy, trade and job opportunities. Nominated countries must be friendly to the United States and its allies; the country must provide trusted energy oil and gas reserves for the future of sustainable energy development." It doesn't hurt, either, that "the Canadian Allied Military Forces work with the U.S. and abroad to protect our mutual interests."
