1.06.9 One dollar and 6 point 9 cents
Brilliant.
Highest price in Canada.
I read a quote read somewhere locally:
“When there is an abundance of supply chasing too few dollars, the price at the pump must go up…”
Now in Victoria, the other rule applies too:
“When there is a shortage of supply chasing too few dollars, the price at the pump must go up…”
So. You see our problem.
In Caracas, Venezuela (My colleague Al was there for 10 days…), the price at the state owned pumps (sourced from state owned refineries… kind of like Petro-Can) was 11 cents…
a gallon.
11 cents a gallon. And the Venezuelan State owned oil companies have been reporting a profit for years.
So. At the gas pumps in Victoria, B.C. Canada, we do not get gassed. We get fcuked.
Plain and simple.
Chug a lug.
