And yet many still can't afford gas because they are now jobless.
I and others warned you, cheap gas = bad news in AB... I wish it was still 1.30 a liter...

Why should people stop 'living in the past"?
You think it is better today with the country nearly a trillion in debt, unemployment up, $50,000 for a half ton.a dn 400grand for a 40 year old house?

And for some unfathomable reason people don't get that oil price =/= gas price...
Gas price = oil price + refine price + transportation price + distribution price
I will give you a hint, 3 of those went up since 1970...
I can't find a Canadian source but in the US with gas around 2 dollars a gallon now it is actually close to the cheapest it has ever been if you take inflation into account... Here in Canada it is probably about the same I would guess.

Aren't smartphones made from petroleum products? How come no one complains that their iPhone isn't a third of the price from a year ago?

This is the problem, people assuming that's the proper price to pay with the current oil price... Wake up... We are being ripped off..
Current oil prices should work out to about 58 cents/litre or a tad less..
