    Here as of yesterday, gas was 95.9 here in Lower Sackville N.S. and when in Toronto on the weekend in Mississauga it was 78.9 when we left yesterday...definitely something is very wrong ....Dianne

    Gas here in Calgary was 84.2 yesterday but you get 3.5 cents off a litre if you buy at CO OP or Safeway.

    Gas in Melfort, Saskatchewan is at 89.9. It's about the same in Saskatoon. Not much difference around the province.

    Hi Beeaired, I just filled the van today 95.9 a litre. I have a choice to go to Wilsons gas bar and get 2 cents a litre for cash or debit, or the Superstore {a grocery store owned by Loblaws } gas bar and get 3.5 cents a litre  in  superstore money which can be redeamed for groceries. After the victoria day weekend, the paper said we can expect around a 7 cents a litre increase { we get that every year }  If you heat yor home with oil it is 60 cents a litre for cash. Thank heaven we have a new home, hubby built and we only use 350 gallons a winter. Time to get a car that runs on water.   Patsy

    Oh dear, and I thought 105.00 per litre was
    bad!!!!!!! 
    Here in the Lower Mainland if you buy gas within
    the GVRD it's 105.00 per litre, but if you drive outside the limits, and that
    would be roughly 30 klicks outside of Surrey you can pay 92 per litre......worth
    the drive!
