Woke up this morning and local Gas prices have shot up nearly 40cents per litre. we are now paying nearly $2.00 per litter for regular gas. Conversion factor and it is $6.12 US per Gallon, which equates to $134.64 US to fill a tank, yikes....how can we afford to drive around and have fun in our vehicles at this rate.

For me it's just hard to believe that as the Firth largest producer of crude oil in the workld and 3rd largest oil reserves in the world and we in Canada have the highest fuel prices in North America. Do not get me wrong I know that a big portio of this is the fact we process very littel crude oil to fuel in Canada and we have a huge amount of taxes, but seriously give us workers a break alredy, lol

Loved my time in Fairchild AFB and Tyndal AFB working along side the Red Horse, as well as in Afghanistan working alongside US Mil

Oh boy.....I got a warning for political posting.

I love how we have a first amendment and we cannot discuss or post opinions like adults. Censorship at its finest.......like all social media platforms now.

My post did not attack anyone......merely stated facts.

Energy independence will bring global political independence. Don't need to see EVs running around everywhere, but to the extent we can use renewables the better.

Home solar would be the ultimate setup. In cyber warfare electrical plants would be a huge target to disrupt. It wouldn't do so much to us if each house still was able to run on solar.

You clearly don't understand 1A if you think it applies to a message board.
