I don't think so. The gas prices in THIS province are the highest we've
seen - ever.
Someone is bullshitting the people of this country. Again.

Cheaper gas pushes inflation lower
Canada's annual inflation rate fell sharply in April, from 1.0 per cent
the previous month to 0.4 per cent largely on the back of lower gasoline
prices.
Statistics Canada reported Friday that Canada's consumer price index
dropped to 0.4 per cent in the 12 months ended in April.
The largest factor in the slowdown was the drop in gasoline prices,
which were 6.0 per cent lower in April over the same month in 2012.
That's the largest annual decline in gas prices since October 2009, the
data agency said.
Lower prices in B.C., N.B.
Many other subsectors also declined.
Transportation costs overall declined 2.1 per cent. Mortgage interest
costs, video equipment, automobiles and travel tours also were lower.
Food prices rose 1.5 per cent, but that was less than the 1.8 per cent
rise in March, while shelter costs increased by 1.3 per cent.
Regionally, British Columbia and New Brunswick saw their inflation rate
dip into negative territory. All other provinces saw prices increase,
but only slightly.

Is your problem that you've been inhaling over the nozzle while
refueling, Schild?

In 2008, a litre of gas was $1.40 and a barrel of oil was $140. Now,
a litre of gas is $1.25, but a barrel of oil is only $94.00. What
happened? EnviroFAGGOTRY happened. A concerted effort on the part of
enviroQUEERS to prevent the building of new refineries and refinery
capacity. Result? VAST increases in the price of gas, even though
the oil price is as low as it was 10 YEARS ago. Same thing is going
to happen with electricity, thanks to ENVIROQUEERS. Get out your
credit card, it's going to hurt.
