We are currently running at about $7.88/ Gallon.

Ouch! I just paid $2.70. I don't feel so bad. What is the deal "up there, eh?"

Even though we produce our own oil, we pay world prices for it, and then the government (liberal) adds almost 50% in taxes.

One of the taxes is provincial, one is federal, and then the feds tax both taxes again with the goods and services tax. (GST).

I managed to fill up yesterday at $4.40, so the rest is gouging, I guess.
