Based on the map of oil shale reserves in North America, the United States and Canada could potentially have an E. allocational boundary dispute.
What is an allocation boundary dispute ?
An allocational boundary dispute arises when there is disagreement over the allocation of resources or rights to a particular area. In this case, both the United States and Canada have significant oil shale reserves that extend across their borders.
A dispute could arise over how much of the oil shale resources each country is entitled to. Locational boundary disputes involve disagreements over the exact location of a boundary line.
