It's the high gas taxes that's inflating the prices at the pump. Ridiculous taxes!
Everytime I see my cousins from Venezuela they just laugh at the prices that I'm paying. They pay on average TWELVE cents per litre in the capital city of Caracas.
That is criminal! No wonder my cousins see so many people driving SUVs everywhere. Jeep Grand Cherokee, Hummers, Escalades, you name it. Many people there drive them.

It's not worth it for all the violent crime, shootings, robberies, kidnappings and 25% inflation in that country.

how many more increases to the carbon tax are we going to have?
Fuck! That shit pisses me off. If I wanted a hippie dippy government intent on signing through life's pain and coming together in an organic drum circle while eating granola, I along with many other people would have voted green.

If only the people create a fuss and referendum against the carbon tax back then instead of the HST....

lol. jacking up carbon taxes so those CEO schmucks could get a bigger bonus year after year.
dont worry though, those schmucks are should get a price hike on services for them, just because we know they are ceo's of translink or w/e, just to let them have a taste of their own medicine. BS. all BS.

I was just browsing street view on Google maps, and caught a picture of a gas station. 104.9 back in 2009. How far we've gone.
I remember when I was a kid and my parents would fill up at around $0.30/liter. This is back around 1994.

LOL, I passed the first station you're referring to today for just about the same reasons. It didn't look trustworthy. I went into the Chevron. 122.9 vs 119 something at the offbrand gas station.
