I have seen this email for the last 5 years around Canada anyhow. We have had high prices for a long time but as soon as it gets a bit higher in the U.*. oh boy watch out now they are going to do something about high prices, LOL. Have fun trying. We have had the gov run some kind of investigation and guess what they found nothing wrong with the way the prices can jump $0.10 per liter in one day that would be like the gas jumping $0.40 in one day.

I just recently filled up my Malibu before I came home from out of town ( Friday morning) I paid $1.07 per liter that is about $4.08 per gallon.

So people in the U.*. have a way to go before they pay what we do for gas. Enjoy the ride, LOL.

Sucks to have my job as I drive about 6,000kms a month almost 3,800 miles).

Gas stations cannot have their price lower then their cost, using it as a loss leader for other business. Gas companies aren't pushing it higher, they're just passing costs on to you.

A one day boycott? Please, what do the truckers do, what do delivery people do, people on cross country vacations, metro transit, etc. The simple facts are gas is still cheaper then it was 2 years ago, and ifa it'* such a problem for you, then you should re-evaluate your driving habits.
