What happened
The International Energy Agency reported that the conflict between the US and Iran is causing global energy market instability and a decline in global energy demand. The IEA expects global supply to decrease by 5.7 million B/D in 2026, representing a 6% decrease from 2025. Separately, market expectations that Congress may limit Donald Trump's war with Iran led to predictions of falling gasoline and diesel prices in Ontario.

Why it matters
