Oh the irony.

 

[LMLCHEVY]

Yup.
Don’t blame the oil companies, they can charge what they want to keep their profit margin. So if you tax them guess who pays both their tax and the governments bs taxes, the consumer.

Get what you vote for.

Its Easy.. Stop driving..

i wonder if a pipeline would help?

 

[tejay]

The BC government has sued Alberta to prevent the pipeline and also to prevent the pipeline from shutting off the flow . Hmmmmmmm

 

[catalac]

Stop electing socialist governments, morons.

There is an ongoing bitch on FB Revelstoke regarding gas pricing and people actually think city hall can do something about it. Good grief the stupidity is endless. If you don’t like the pricing then walk.

 

[FastFarmer]

Oh the irony.

My thoughts exactly..and wasn’t there something in a thread that you can’t take fuel containers on ferries anymore?

Yes, the Galena ferry out of Revelstoke was the one where we heard of enforcement. When I moved, I had about 12 jerry cans with me (most were empty) and I crossed that ferry without a problem. Good thing they were well hidden under other items in the box of the truck.

so one store sells a loaf of bread for $3.00, then another sells a loaf of bread for $6.00, do they demand an inquiry on the prices? Just support the lowest priced station and others will lower to their price or less to attract customers. Its not price gouging they should look into, its price fixing.

[tejay]

Sure head on down and buy a 100.000$ Tesla so you can go to the grocery store but dare not head out on the highway

true, they are cheaper to fuel then a gas powered vehicle. This is because they don’t run on fuel they run on electricity, from a dam that was built by flooding a large area of bc forest and then hundreds of diesel and gas powered vehicles were used to dig a hole and pour tons of chemical induced concrete and wire and steel wherry things in the ground. The steel and wire used comes from another place called a mine that uses hundreds of fuel burning equipment and large amounts of explosives that are also chemicals....from a mine, to make it possible for some yah hoo to say I’m have a green car, I’m special look at me, I’m saving the world.
Let’s not forget how we got there.

You forgot about the steel and wood used for power transmission, the copper mined for lines and the Natural gas used to heat these places while producing this clean electricity for their vehicles.
