you had jokingly said about trains. he he

Alberta.
Overnight, just overnight, our price jumped 10 cents a litre.

I have no idea what caused such a large jump overnight.
From 97 cents a litre to $1.07 a litre.....

I know it's still cheap compared to much of Canada, but still....
I don't know if that means the other provinces are also going up

I hope not. $1.17 in Saskatchewan.

$1.24 in southern Ontario, overnight too from $1.18 and a week before that $1.13, why? Damn speculators it at again or something else, Mali, Al Queda? What is the reason this time? So they don't want people to travel, afford to get to work or spend any disposable income on anything but gas and food?

For some strange reason the price of a litre of diesel has gone up in the past week, at least where I am. By 3p. That's around a 4% hike out of nowhere.

I paid nearly $3.90 last night per gallon and was ready to curse at people the entire time. This is exactly the price level that gas was, several years ago, during the post Katrina debacle - when they were cramming a bunch of nonsense about flooded refineries and "winter" and "summer" gas down our throats to try and explain why the price had gone from around a buck a gallon to nearly four in just a few days.

To my credit, even back then, I told my friends "Get used to it. This isn't a crisis. It's a test to see if we'll pay this much or not. This is probing."

Sure enough.

As for the app that will tell me how much of that money goes to the highly corrupt state of Georgia? I honestly am going out of my way not to know because the result will likely enrage me.

Yup, it has to be a test of some sort as just the other day I saw the highest ever price for petrol that I've ever seen..

£1.38 a litre...
$2.16 a litre... but you lot over the pond do it in gallons...

There are 3.785 litres of petrol in a US gallon of petrol

www.whatgas.com...

$2.16 X 3.785 = $8.17
