The news today said gas in Vancouver jumped up to $1.42 a litre today if true that's $.12 a litre raping overnight, which means that one of the PR flacks in the oil industry thinks we're so dense we'll believe the "eclipse" theory as the reason they're gouging their customers.

What a joke. You can get gas at less than a buck a litre in the middle of Canada yet we on the coast we continually suffer from the oil companies version of the Enron syndrome where you yearly close some of your refineries for "maintenance" and then charge way more for your under produced product. I wait with bated breath for the higher than anywhere in Canada gas prices when they change over to production of fuel oil in September.

Ikr. More likely is that this is how Paris St. Germain is going to pay for Neymar's ridiculous transfer fee.
