It's $1.21 here in SW Ontario. This mornings news said that gas prices in the US have hit an all time high but when converted to liters and CDN$ it is still just $0.90/liter.

$0.90 plus $.031/liter tax = $1.21/liter. Exact same price!

The US gas price includes their tax rate of $0.26 to $0.64 per gallon as well.

Just one more way for our government to screw us over.

And to top it all off, we pay tax on the tax! In Alberta, the money collected from gas taxes was to go into roads and highways You would never know it! In some places it's smoother to drive in the ditches.
