Gas prices to jump to highest level in 2 years in Ontario, Quebec

Gas prices in Ontario and Quebec will jump to their highest level in almost two years on Thursday.
The average price of a litre of gas in both provinces is set to rise 14 cents overnight, according to Dan McTeague, president of Canadians for Affordable Energy.
It’s the highest price for gas seen in both provinces since Aug. 2, 2022.
Caryn Lieberman unpacks the reason for the higher prices, and what consumers can do to ease the pain at the pump.

[@monarch1957]

The oil companies should be fined $1 million a day for every cent they go over the dollar a liter barrier, and given back to the consumers. This is totally nonsence how do they expect to get inflation under control. The stress of inflation already put me in the hospital, costing the health system several hundred dollar. It also hurts charities as we have no extra money to donate as it cost more to live than our old age pensions give us to live on.

The big lie. Crude oil prices don't determine refined fuels. The refineries set the prices arbitrarily and use every trick to do it.

Yes like saying "price of oil has little to do with the price of gas" then when gas prices rise they say "Price of crude oil has bumped up the price of refined fuels...
