Oil is $27.68USD per barrel. That's $38.88CAD.
There's absolutely no reason for prices to be this high. It's pure price gouging.

No it's not. It was over $1.10 pre, now it's still under 90 cents. Still, it's gone up because producers stopped producing. When it dropped so low, it was because there was too much at the time and things looked bleak. Who cares anyways, I haven't filled up in 3 months.

Trump said it is.

I did 1/3 the mileage in the last 8 weeks at 60% of pre covid price, saving close to $300.

That said, its still 20c cheaper than precovid and oil is traded in USD and CAD is expected to crash against it over the next year. Go buy a Tesla if you don't like that.

Exactly. This is nothing new: gas prices always increase in summer months due to an increase in demand. Don't like it? Buy an EV. LOL.
