Gas Price Drops


The price of gas dropped on Wednesday Morning in the GTA. The average drop in price was 3 cents per litre. That means the regular gasoline in the GTA costs a total of $1.19 per litre. A survey of gas prices in Canada leads to a country-wide average of $1.25 per litre. At the same time, the United States are paying a record high average of $3.60 per gallon, this converts to $0.96 Cdn per litre.

This is unfair for the united states to be playing an average of $0.30 cheaper than Canada. As it is Canada is paying less than many countries internationally. I don't think that this should be tolerated. One of the main reasons for the low gas prices in the United States is because they declare war on countries that have resources such as oil. The prices of gas should not be dependent on the size of a military and the willingness to invade.
