Gas prices are beginning to get out of hand. Today, oil prices closed at $67.15 per barrel. That's outrageous. In Interior British Columbia, gas prices are 101.9 cents per litre. That gets really expensive after a while. This problem has only started to happen after Canada signed the Kyoto Accord. But statistics say that Canada only produces 2% of all the world's greenhouse emmisions. The U.S. on the other hand produces 25% of all the world's greenhouse emmisions and they didn't sign the Kyoto Accord. Why should Canadians suffer by paying gas prices. We need the government to either cap gas prices or give out more energy cost rebates.
