Here we go again, B.C. is asking the Independent Utilities Commission to make recommendations to regulate the price of gas as it continues to set records.
Didn’t they already look into this and say we pay more. Nothing ever came from it, prices didn’t change
No one is going to complain about the anti energy governments, taxes, and inflation causing this?
All this cost increase across the board is directly government related. Your house is worth more on paper but you'll pay 40% more for everything and you can't afford to move.
Makes me want to cash out and live under a bridge somewhere.

I think the result was they found 10-15 cents a Liter that was unexplainable or not a result of market forces.
Totally unexpected

I feel we already get 20% less for 20% more, now that we have given all the pandemic handouts the devastation of the November flooding the skyrocketing fuel costs,especially diesel, all that just gets passed on to us sheep,unless you're a 1%r,we are forever going to be screwed by an archaic system that continues to spiral us further and further into debt. No matter what they get their 50% plus of everything we make.

Here’s the news of a terrorist attack on a federally approved gas line in BC. Thanks Justin for making this country one of the unsafest places for energy and infrastructure investments while we keep asking why the prices are going up.

Some guy in Europe has a Jeep compass 4xe hybrid,
Dude is averaging 0.70 lt /100km. Either he knows how to drive a phev or he messed up in inputting his data in spritmonitor fuel tracking app.
And ya know what the dumb thing is? I've been wanting to get a compass phev for the last two years, and found out last week north America ain't getting them.
Closest thing to it is the 2022 kia sportage phev.

Aces didn’t say he was driving a plug in. Could be a regular hybrid. A plug in could get great mileage if you don’t have To travel far and use mostly the electric motor. Still great fuel economy and nothing to complain about in my mind as I switch from a one ton truck lol

He’s also coming for half of your gains if you sell your primary residence.

My wife has a PHEV and we have had it as low as .2 Litre /100 kilometre for a large period of time. When you go on a road trip you might drag the average up, but she essentially only burns gas if she goes further than her normal route or runs the heater. Not for everyone ,but if you like most people don’t travel that far and have a home charger, you buy gas once a year unless you do a road trip.

The Trickle Down ( or this case Trickle UP ) effect will be felt, by everyone, very soon, as almost ALL foodstuffs and consumer goods are delivered to the point of sale by trucks. Trucks running on diesel fuel.....
How sad that a guy who lives in Port Alberni (from what I see from reading his posts) one of the best fishing areas has been priced out of his recreational pastime.

Yes it’s a regular hybrid. I don't trust full plug in technology and charging network yet.

The $2/L gas might not impact my fishing this summer because I may use the 16’ boat 10 days a year , but I am damn sure I’ll be a little annoyed at the $2/L price every time I fuel it up because of the overall impacts on life.
We have friends that use their ski boat a lot in the summer. They spent between $2-3K a year on fuel when it was $1.25/L. I’m sure they will be noticing the impacts this summer!!
