The reason you see the Canadian prices higher there Goofo is because one US dollar is equal to about $1.15 in Canadian dollars. Our dollar is getting stronger though it used to be that on US dollar was $1.50 Canadian. Around here they are still blaming gas prices on Katrina. They are going so far as to say that is when gas companies realized that people would pay such a high price and so they keep it there. Give me a break! Kevin does drive our more gas efficient car daily to work and back and I use the minivan for the quick trips around the community. We go through a tank of gas in that van once every 3 or 4 weeks depending on vacations etc. We have considered the new Hybrid cars but they are so expensive that once you factor in the gas savings on them it would take about 5 or 6 years for it to break even with the cost of a small non hybrid car. I think the one thing I really don't understand is how much the price can fluctuate over a weeks time. One day it can be as much as 15 cents a liter different (about 50 cents US a gallon). I also do not get the huge discrepancy accross the country. I can see that it isn't just Canada that has to deal with that too. I have to wonder though why our politicians in our countries capitol city enjoy the best prices in the country. Now THAT is fair.
