That is incorrect. The right-wing media seems to keep repeating that still. And the country that Quebec imported the most crude oil from until changes were made was Algeria in North Africa, not the Middle East.

Look at the change in this chart showing 2012 and 2017. I have read that crude oil from Alberta oil sands now makes up more than half of what refined in Quebec.
