Canada, in addition to other G7 member countries, is working to place a cap on the price Russia receives for its exported oil without reducing overall exports. These unprecedented measures will restrict Russia's funding of its war in Ukraine. They also run the risk of introducing volatility to the global oil market and driving up prices of both crude and gasoline.
