in canada it's $1.29 a litre or about $4.48 a gallon. canada has the third largest proven oil reserves in the world.
the 4th is iran, at .42 cents a gallon or about .11 cents a litre. the 5th is kuwait at .22 cents a gallon or .06 cents a litre.
the 6th largest is venezuela where gas is .12 a gallon or about .03 cents a litre. chavez for some crazy reason decided that the country's oil,
being a natural resource, belongs to all the people of venezuela equally and not to one single private individual or to a profit driven corporation
for exploitation.
the first 2 are saudi arabia at .98 cents a gallon or about .25 cents a litre and iraq, the country not invaded for it's oil at about .40 cents a
gallon.
so the canadian price of $4.48 a gallon, more than all these countries combined, is just about right, it's fair and makes sense.
so the next time i pay $4.48 for a gallon of gasoline at petro canada, i'm going to send a giant f-ck you to all you treasonous politicians who sold
all of canada's oil to exxon, shell, china and every other soulless foreign corp. and didn't even have the respect, loyality or patriotism to cut a
deal for atleast a min. of $1.00 - $1.50 a gallon gasoline to the citizens of the country you stole the oil from.
if the u.s. government sold out this badly to it's citizens, guns would be a'blazin'. that's the one thing i respect about americans, they're
fighters.
