I would just be happy if gas was same price as when I started driving, $0.89 a gal.

you guyz are still not payin anywhere near what the canadians pay...and we sell a lot of to the states too

our gas is 1.04-1.15 a litre for regular, thats 4.16-4.60 a gallon...its rediculous! stupid gas prices..ours is just taxed to crap with the gov't our gas being 1.04 a litre the gov't gets about .60-.70 of that...its stupid..if they'd take like .10 or .20 of that we'd be ok...stupid!!
Yeah, but that isn't taking into the exchange rate. It takes like 20 Canadian dollars to equal 1 US dollar so your gas is like a buck o five.

GP `Dave, I'll stay in the USA & hope we find solutions to our many problems.
But, I think I will get a gun permit to protect my Monte & Fuel : )

Yea, up here in Canada, Petro Canada posted a profit of 585,000,000 - yes thats 585 million dollars in a 12 week period.

Tell me who made that kind of profit in that amount of time?
(other then Bill Gates)

Our neighbors to the north really do take it on the nose. I was told by a few Canadians lastweekend how your cars get taxed. Really unfair in my book.

But this price gouging gas companies is unfair!!!

They don't have our government in their back pockets. They have them in the front of their pants.

Uncle Space, I just saw on the news last week that we can use alcohol ol for fuel. Heaven knows we have plenty of that around.

I wonder if you have to be 21 to fill up.[sm=icon_guiness.gif][sm=icon_guiness.gif][sm=icon_guiness.gif]
