No one complaining about high gas prices???
Gas is above $1 including at Costco and no one is complaining?
Is that a first?
C'mon guys get with it.

I guess when I’m at the gas station and see the high price of fuel I’m the only one smiling.

This down .05 and then down.02 and then up .10 or more is a bit off the wall for my tastes, and every single station does it on the same day.

Going to probably get worse before it gets better. Heading into one of the largest refinery turn arounds in a long time.

Rising Gas prices doesn't surprise me I came to conclusion a long time ago the price of oil has nothing to do with the price, They have a blindfolded monkey throwing darts at a target with 1 -25 cents on it.
What is a little strange is half the gas stations in Lloyd are $112.9 and the rest are $105.9 its been like that for almost a week.

True,
Usually there is a complaint thread.
I thought maybe Spring fever is setting in over Cabin fever.

We should be putting in our guesses for May long. I bet it will be $1.32/LT. Winner gets to strut like a peacock on AO for a day.

I predict high prices, a union rep told me there's back to back shutdowns all summer because a lot of plants deferred because of low oil prices now they are behind the 8 ball. The Co-op refinery is Regina is having the largest shutdown in it's history this will certainly affect gas prices.

I like to drive. My truck burns fuel.
We need the extra C02 to combat global cooling.

This is how Oil Gods wish you a Happy Easter.
It Happens every long weekend regardless what Government is in charge and what is price of oil.
It is cheaper to get bottle of Buzz and stay home than to visit Family. Now if you don't drink you will be able to get skunk weed and be too impaired to drive.
Part of Social engineering.... ??????
Gas is 2.62 US per Gallon (or 3.785 Liters) in Whitefish Montana Safeway station right now. This is 69 US Cents per Liter or 88.8 Can Cents per Liter.
1.089 C$ at Costco NE Calgary.

A turnaround is when the part of the plant is kept running so the company can claim maintenance pay rates.
A total plant outage is a shutdown the company has to buck up construction rates.
40 years in union maintenance last 15 in planning.
