Filled the Subie last night at $0.715 for regular.  Premium is $0.830.  (Petro-Canada)

Mid-to-low 80's in the GTA of late.  Think I saw a 79 they other day, but I didn't need gas at the time.

Of course, the price drops in time with my move that cuts my commute in half.  C'est la vie.

BC gas prices, right up there with Quebec and the Maritimes, it sounds like. I remember being in Vancouver almost three years ago and having to fill up a gas-guzzling Explorer Sport Trac at a price somewhere in the 90's. That blew my mind at the time since it seemed crazy high.

Spoke too soon.  Just went up 10 cents per litre in about an hour.

A$$holes.

Gas prices in Toronto range form 79.9 to 89.9. which is 40 cents a gallon and that kind of spread is absolute BS.  Prices are 84.9 in Owen Sound up from 76.9 :o

I thought prices would stay down in the mid 70s. ::) :'(

What goes down must come up, I guess...or in some cases, hope.  :-\

Ya, but in Alberta the price was likely so low that a 10cent hike is peanuts. What is regular in Edmonton and Calgary right now?

Still 95.9 here, it's bound to be much lower over there. Suck it up, boys.  ;) ;D

Not sure exactly...I think the last time I noticed it was somewhere in the mid to high 70's.  10c hike is huge....that would double my hourly wages.

Here, the Oil Sands will make it all better for you over there. Low taxes and eleventy-billion years of reserves - soon to be counted so get your shares in the players in the Sands now before the big rush after their reserves go way up.

Free advice, yet (just not sure it's worth anything).  :rofl2:

I don't know for sure the gas prices around Calgary....I rarely keep track of them.  Maybe they are in the low 80's....the last time I noticed the prices was last week.
