      Southern Europe (Spain, Portugal, Italy, Southern France, Greece…) can provide all needed solar, wind, hydro, tide, and other renewable power to all EU. Actually tide is better in atlantic coasts. Why lay humongous cables (power is not data) across an ocean?

      Canada can contribute many other things.
