What happen to building refineries in Canada so we don't to pay so much?
The 4th biggest in Canada just re-opened two weeks ago after a major expansion. 50% increase in capacity although none of the refineries are running full steam making fuel to begin with.

I was thinking about that millionaire who was goung to build in BC and something about the pipeline..
BC alread has a refinery in Burnaby with a few more on Puget Sound 1 hour away in Everett WA. There is no shortage of fuel refining capacity. There is for upgrading and oil refining.

Soon we'll see fuel back under 80 cents/L and the economy will boom in the dead parts of the country.

Shut downs are yearly at all refineries. thats why they have those big tanks to stockpile. You won't an increase at the pumps.

You can't get the good hi-octane stuff in Squish?

It's going to keep dropping and dropping and dropping as more and more domestic Nor Am oil is produced and projects underway compete in very short order.

Any Chance you are a gambling man?

The dedicated tax on clear gasoline and clear diesel fuel sold inside the South Coast British Columbia transportation service region (SCTA) is 17¢ per litre. (TransLink increased the rate from 15¢ to 17¢ per litre effective April 1, 2012.)

It's still cheaper to drive than use Translink. Who is benefitting other than Translink?

It's 111.9- 114.9 in Mission
