In Canada we have always had higher gas prices than the US because of taxes. But on my trip down east (New Brunswick and Nova Scotia) I was seeing $1.20/litre. A litre is almost exactly a US quart so you can call it $4.80Cdn/gallon. Currency exchange brings that to about $4.10/gallon.
The kicker? New Brunswick gov't recently stepped in to regulate gas prices. They wanted to stop the wild swings in gas prices. The result - they get screwed all the time rather than just some of the time. Got back to Ontario and the prices were fluctuating between $1.00 and $1.10 Somehow I don't think this is ever going to get better. In five years we will be looking at $1.00/litre and laughing that gas was ever that cheap. |
