The Petro-Canada Act is passed.
On July 30, the Petro-Canada Act is passed transferring the government's existing energy assets to the new Crown corporation. Petro-Canada was a product of the world oil crisis in 1973 and 1974.
We began operating in an effort to provide more Canadian control over the domestic oil industry, to ensure Canada would receive its fair share of remote energy resources, and to provide the federal government with a better understanding of the country's oil industry.
