Just caught a bit of an announcement on the radio about a big gas SPIKE comming up in june.

Gas in the GTA it stated will be running around $1.40 per liter for regular.

Wonder if diesel will spike also , high enough now!!

Anyone heard anymore of this new "RIP" comming?

It's regularly near $1.30 now. I would hardly call $0.10 a big gas spike, it basically swings 10 cents every other week as it is. Still $1.40 for the regular sucks, this summer, hot rod premium is going to be selling at a premium!!!no

 If they tried raising gas .40/gallon in the US this would start a riot but us Canadians just shrug it off and say" no big deal"

 I just got a couple more jugs of gas for the plow and snow blower....AGAIN - and prices were all over the place  in London I saw $1.30.9 down to the lowest around here at $1.26.9. Guess which one I stopped at? blankstare

Here's the real puzzler: Why the drastic fluctuations from week to week and why such a big difference from place to place?

I buy my milk from Shoppers. It's $3.97 for 4 litres or just under $1 a litre - it's been at that price for at least 10 years!!! It doesn't change from week to week, year to year, or from west London to east London! I wish my car ran on milk! Of course opening 60 or 70 litres of bags could be time consuming and messy, Maybe I'd buy a cow or two off my neighbour and call it done!!!!

Re: gas prices, Between North Bay, Sudbury and Sturgeon Falls there can be as much as 15cents per liter difference in Sturgeon, gas is almost always cheaper there.
Another puzzle is at times gas up in the Timmins area is cheaper than here by 10 cents per liter. (250 miles farther north to haul it!)

With Diesel here right now running $1.49, a gas spike of 10 cents is really going to shaft the truckers, and AGAIN is going to drive the retail price of EVERYTHING up!

So figure this one, gas going to the US- Ogdensburg, NY comes from the Ultramar terminal in Maitland, Ont about a 10 minute drive to the border crossing, I've followed the tankers over. Price in US is $1.01/L today, here it's $1.31/L, guess where I fill up.

Gas is $1.15 here and it goes up in the summer for the tourist season
but...milk is $5.79 at the big stores for 4 litres.
We do not have those little bags of milk out here.
They are handy.

Two sentences to ponder.





These two short sentences tell you a lot about

our government and our culture:
...
1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few

lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions

of a few lunatics. Funny how that works.



And here's another one worth considering.



2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to

run out of money. How come we never hear about welfare running out of

money? NEVER!!!! What's interesting is the first group " worked for "

their money, but the second didn't.



Think about itSee

One problem is taxes, in edmonton it was 1.09 desiel 1.12 Alberta  has only a 5% gst tax.The biggest problem is demand if we had better alternative fuels we wouldn't have to rely on gas. I work in the oil field so I don't have to much problem paying the price because I see where the big guys have to spend their millions and the cost to get it to the pumps only to have the price doubled in taxes. A few years back I had a breakdown of cost per liter of gas and the government makes more in taxes than the oil company in profit.The federal government charges taxes on taxes if you can believe it!

Gas jumped to 1.43 the other day up here. Diesel is pushing 1.49. Nobody can tell me why diesel is more expensive. It used to be a lot cheaper in the old days! I guess cuz there's more diesel vehicles the price has to go up! I always wondered why the price of gas was cheapest in the Ottawa area. Must have hidden refineries there or maybe they pipe in the all the bs from our wonderful government and convert it to fuels!!!

Diesel is tied to the demand for heating oil. Once the warm weather hits, it should go down. But then again, there's no ryme or reason to fuel prices.

Check out gas taxes and you'll see why it goes up & up. No tax money goes for infrastructure but props up pensions for retiring politicians. Google their pensions and between wasted projects and their mistakes, we are never gonna get ahead. All we can do is enjoy our passion for cars and friends and to hell with bitching about something we have no control over. Stay broke and happy!!!!! I've been retired for almost 22 years and I have no aspirations about being rich but I drive the wheels off my car and drive my friends crazy so that is good enough for me.

Roofing products, pavement , and plastic demands also effect pricing.... As processors can make higher priced yield items from the same product, the price goes up!!!

Seriously, Germany pays $2.50 a litre. For awhile now.
We pay $1.60 for a medium Timmys coffee, $2 for water....but complain about $1.30 litre. I don't like it anymore than the next guy.....but what can I do to help as I fill? nothing. I need fuel to get from point a to b. By no means am I defending the oil companies.
Unless we all buy 10 speeds.......

Thing that bothers me is that we are an oil producing country. The US gets 25% of their oil from us and pays much less for it than we do as consumers...The difference is the taxes on it...Sure, we have healthcare that this supposedly helps pay for ....I think we have something to complain about

 Germany is not 7000 miles wide !!! We have the second largest Country in the world, therefore towns are further apart than towns in Germany. If you needed 150 liters of coffee per week, we WOULD be bitching about coffee prices. Also, Europeans have access to very fuel efficient vehicles we could only dream of owning here, which I think the oil companies are trying to prevent us from owning by artificially keeping diesel prices high.

What scares me the most is that the price of petroleum jelly is going to sky rocket soon, and right now it's the only thing that eases the pain of getting it rammed up my a$$ by the oil companies.

I buy my gas on the "REZ". Today was $1.09. They are always 15cents a litre cheaper than the cheapest price anywhere. That is the price for everybody.
