3 Minute History Canada delivers the political fireworks.
This week’s episode uncovers the 1975 creation of Petro-Canada — Trudeau’s state-owned oil giant born in the 1973 crisis. Ottawa spent $340 million overnight, clashed hard with Alberta, and turned it into a takeover machine under the NEP. Now it’s just your local gas station.
Created by historian and energy analyst Tammy Nemeth, each three-minute episode blends vivid storytelling, rare visuals, and the real human grit behind the headlines.
