It's amazing how quickly gas prices go up for whatever reasons and how
slowly they come back down after the reasons have passed.

The little gas station Mrs.E. and I go to has the lowest gas prices in
the area. When other stations are at $2.25 a gallon, this one is at
$2.15. Run by super nice and friendly people too.

Shortly before Harvey, the price for a gallon had risen to $2.23. I
noticed this morning when driving by the station that the price has now
risen to $2.53 a gallon.

Here diesel was $2.49 a week ago. Three days ago a dime was added. Yesterday another dime. Haven't
looked today.

Why don't you have your own refineries and not be so dependent on the USA?

Duh...we do Johnny. Ever hear of Irving in Saint John NS?
The last one in Nova Scotia was closed a couple years ago and now is just a tank farm.

Closed? Too expensive to bring crude in by ship? You can't be
independant and make cheap gas if you don't have a refinary. You
have to settle for what the U.S. gives you. So shut up snd be
grateful for what we give you.

The US gives us diddly. We were getting our crude from South America when the Imperial Oil refinery was still operating but as far as I can tell we buy it wherever we can now. The Feds want to extend a pipeling from Alberta to Montreal, the rest of the way to Saint John, New Brunswick. That might fix our supply situation but the prices are set either against a New York benchmark or a European benchmark...whichever makes more money for the oil company.

If the USA isn't providing your oil, then stop your whining about the USA.

pipeling?

Seems like this is as screwed up as your healthcare.

The irving refinery produces about 16% of your consumption but you
actually export 4 times as much oil as you import. The difference is
you are importing sweet light crude and you are exporting the sludge
you get from the oil sands.
