I don't know where these gas prices are going to go. Here in Ontario where I live gas is ranging between $1.06 to $1.10 a liter which would be $4.40 an Imperial gallon.

The Imperial gallon is a little bigger than the U.S. gallon but certainly not that much to ask about a dollar more a gallon than the U.S. prices.

The problem with gas prices in late March is the refineries are starting to crack gas for summer driving and less heating oil. Best we can hope for is prices brake some from here.

Yeah right now they are watching for a gas shortage in Western Canada.

Imperial oil has a big refinery we deliver to in Edmonton Ab. that is shut down right now for what they call in the refinery world a "turnaround" Basically doing maintenance and upgrades to cracker units etc.

With that refinery being as big as it is and not producing anything the other refineries in the area had to ramp up production. We deliver to Petro Canada's refinery right next door and they are going nuts right now trying to make up for some of the production lost at Imperial.

We also deliver to Imperial and have been told they will not be online until June.

Be interesting to see what that does to prices out in western Canada and hopfully it won't effect prices here or in the western U.S.

If a fish farts next to an offshore drilling rig they use that as an excuse to raise prices - I'm sure it'll be a reason to raise them across the board.

Fish farts = methane = potential future fuel source

I always wanted that job of making up the excuses.


TUESDAY: Gas prices fell $.02 today due to increased production.

WEDNESDAY: Gas prices rose $.05 today due to decreased production.

and repeat...

Steps.

1. Get fish.
2. Capture fish farts.
3. ?????
4. PROFIT!


It was hilarious, last summer when gas went up .30 a gallon, they said it was due to putting in special additives in to keep the gas from evaporating in the heat that were very expensive.

IT WAS 85 ON CHRISTMAS DAY!


Seriously... wtf. That one wasn't even believable.
