No, but the gas you out in your car came from oil imported from Canada. The best way to ensure energy independence is installing solar and wind farms across the US, but the people that scream the loudest about oil prices are against that too

Solar, wind, hydro, nuclear, even natural gas would all be independent from international conflicts. Obviously, if your goal is an energy transition, pivoting into fossil fuels is brain dead, but that seems like what we're doing.

I am not 100% certain but the US imports unrefined oil and exports refined oil. While the US does produce a lot of unrefined oil it would like ti always bring in more so it can continue to make that sweet sweet profit of exporting the refined product.
