He's definitely a shill. Based on his Twitter feed, Trudeau is 100% at fault for high gas prices, and never the oil companies or refineries. I hate Trudeau as much as the next person, but there's a limit to even his culpability (shocking, right? :lol:).

Taxes certainly add to the cost, but they are not the reason gas is expensive. You could remove every cent of tax from a litre of gas and it would still be about $1.20 right now. That might seem cheap compared to what we're used to, but don't forget gas was 80-90 cents at the beginning COVID.

Dan McTeague is a retired Liberal MP, so he's 100% guaranteed to be corrupt. LOL

Gas prices expected to rise 3 cents this weekend due to sanctions on Russia however they would have gone up 8 cents had Trudumb imposed a stiffer sanction l missed what exactly it was. Maybe one of the braniacs Tspring, Kells or Humpty Gumpty knows what it is, apparently Trudumb held back to prevent a higher raise in gas prices.

I'm glad I don't commute very far. A round trip from Abby to Vancouver is approaching $30. I thought it was bad when it cost $20.

Yeah not doing to bad either Abby sr. my commute is Chilliwack to Abby luckily only venturing to Vye rd and Riverside so the east side of Abby not having to venture any further west is good TBH.

This is such BS. The fact they can get away with this is criminal. Why don't those freedom truckers block or boycott certain gas stations? That would help everyone and everyone would agree. But no, it doesn't push their secret agenda. Canadians are pushovers. :problem:

We would need way more than just a few truckers to boycott certain (really should be all gas stations because they're all in on it) gas stations for it to have an appreciable effect in the hope of maybe forcing their hand just a bit. Needs to be widespread amongst the entire population, which will never happen.

It's all a distraction Dogger, to take your mind off the inevitable 50c heat dome in June.
Akin to the war and covid suddenly disappeared. :shifty:
