Depends, if you have a spare refinery, the market would be happy if you
could supply some.

Regular self service gas increased to 1.22 per litre overnight. ( $4.61 US
gallon)
It will stay there until next Thursday when it'll go up or down at the whim
of our regulation committee.

We thought is was going to protect us from the greedy oil industry..instead
it protects the small independent service stations from undercutting by the
big oil companies. I know...the provincial service station dealers
association president is on the price setting committee. He had been
married to the sister of two of my brother-in-laws.

gallon.

In this market, price controls will get you shortages and no one will sell
