Anonymous Coward User ID: 69099531 Canada 03/18/2020 04:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | the gas here was about $1.09 a litre around march 1st Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76649939 now the gas is .83 cents a litre thats almost a 25% drop in the past couple weeks ^^ however none of this explains why in the mid-90's when a barrel of oil was selling for about $200 a barrel we were paying about .42 cents a litre and now in the past 10 years or so the barrels of oil are $50 or less & we have been paying over a $1.00 a litre so it never made any sense. its just robbery by the oil tycoons. I don't know where your getting your facts but from 91 to 2000 oil never made it above 60 dollars a barrel. That would explain your .42 cents a litre. yes, you are right. I was thinking around 2008 when it was over $200 a barrel but the cost of a barrel was still way higher when we were paying .42 cents a litre then it is when the cost of a barrel was very low like around $33 a barrel so it still never made any sense. unless you are the crook who is doing the thieving. then it would make sense to you. Because the gas you're buying came from oil that had a much higher cost. |

Alberta must love America & hate Canada if they sell gas cheaper to Americans then what they sell it to Canadians for. |

How much does a pack of cigarettes cost you? They're around $6 here. Cigarettes aren't especially heavy or bulky, so the trucking from Virginia to Canada would be a negligible expense. Maybe there's a shit ton of taxes on your petrol? Even more than ours? |
