It was $2.99 when I saw it yesterday. I'm glad I don't have to do a lot of driving this week, hopefully the price will go down once school starts. InshAllah InshAllah InshAllah.

You guys are soooo damn lucky and better off in the US...honestly stop complaining

1.07/litr

1 litr = 3.78 * $1.07/litr

= $4.0446/gallon in Canada

It isnt going down anytime soon, refineries are ramping down production in anticipation of summer time traveling, and driving prices up to $4 a gallon to expand on their trillion dollar revenues. This is the definition of price gouging. I believe that the public is owed some sort of rebate from the oil companies, and a huge price reduction.
