Gas is gettin crazy expensive alright but in a way you americans are just a tad more lucky when you actually figure how much it costs us Canadians for gas. I'm at the point where I fill up at half a tank instead of letting it get almost empty, it's still expensive but it makes is seem like it's not as expensive.

I dont like it. it makes me mad when gas prices go crazy and they give the same lame reasons. they could pump as much black gold as they want, but they're greedy and want ,More! more! more! so they hold back production and get insanely rich

People in Ontario ( ie: Whitby/Oshawa) are lucky enough to have station go thru a price war ..numerous times during the day.

It can vary as much as 15 cents litre within 30 minutes.

I can hardly wait. I'd really hate for some billionaire to have to eat a cold sandwich once in his or her lifetime.

It'll all come back to 'em, in the end. ( That's my only hope. )
