Do you really think Notley would willingly cut the taps on a comrade Dipper and screw the Ego-warrior Fed Dippers on climate and environmental policy without the Alberta and Sask Conservative pressure and support?

It would be the decent thing to do (unlike Horgan) if she was to put her people ahead of politics!

Moe knows Horgan is a loser.

CO-OP Regina and Husky Lloydminster supplies a lot fuel to BC CO-OP, Tempo and Husky stations from the Northern tip of the Island and all through the interior.

Places where others lack market share to compete with CO-OP.

Notley was hoping beyond hope that her NDP-tard counterparts in BC would relent.

... Didn't happen
They can’t despite their wishes to enable the pipeline expansion . They are held hostage by the votes of three greenweavers without which they cannot govern. The NDP are already on short notice from the greens for allowing site c to proceed , proportional rep is fizzling, all the NDP have left for the greens is Kinder Morgan .

Shell NG in Kitimat puts a bee in the Green bonnet too.

Are you excited about voting in October?
Not really . I suppose the Liberal coalition will get back in but they are still wishy washy .

It's better than somebody hamstringing the entire nation to appease 3 people just to keep his job.

That's not leadership

BC is going to have to get it together when it comes to electing a Government that's willing, competent, and capable of properly representing them.

BC Liberals call for government to provide temporary relief at the gas pumps

B.C. Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson is calling on B.C. Premier John Horgan to provide temporary tax relief on provincial fuel taxes. This comes as the gas prices hit all-time highs heading into the May long weekend.

“I think Premier Horgan has a pretty big question to answer. When pump prices are going through the roof, what is he going to do to help British Columbians have an affordable way of life?” Wilkinson said.


Just wait till Alberta turns off the tap...ouch!!

Gas just hit $1.61 L ($6.10 a gallon) in the burbs.

That has to be crippling business and tourism.
All those big motor homes are going to by pass B.C. on the way to Alaska this year .

They don't have to bypass BC, pgs. Gas prices along Highway 97 are much cheaper than the lower mainland.

Cache Creek: 135.9 - 145.9
100 mile: 144.9
Williams Lake: 128.9
Burns Lake: 128.9
PG: 128.9
Smithers: 137.9
Dawson Creek: 128.9

so there you have it.

BC can continue to be victimized by gasoline profiteers or we can say enough is enough. It is time to acknowledge that gasoline is not a practical solution for us.

We acknowledge you are an idiot with no clue about reality.


Nothing wrong with poking a porker, as long as your buddies don't find out about it.

It is an eye opened to watch an NDP government target the little guy for punishment.

I guess they know their constituency.

Traditionally that is what the NDP has done. Screw the workers in favor of freeloaders and the hordes of government Union employees that feed off the system.

It Is nice to sit back and watch the BC dippers self destruct.

I filled my tank today at $1.389, the cheapest in the Okanagan! What would you suggest I should have filled it with?
