Gas price follow

Re: Gassed again

When oil rose to $106 a barrel, gas jumped to $1.35.9/litre in minutes! Now with oil down 25% to $81 and change, gas in Penticton is only down 3% to $131.9, Do the math and we SHOULD be paying $1.05.9/litre.

It does NOT cost 18 cents/litre to ship fuel from Abbotsford to Penticton! This predatory pricing adversely affects business costs and individual pocketbooks and is no less than an act of economic terrorism that needs to be acted on.

What does it take to get the attention of big oil and a government that are both drunk on their windfall profits at our expense? Elsewhere, acts of terrorism are treated to swift and decisive responses.

C'mon and play fair and quit punishing us for living in the Okanagan! 

Bob Ardies, Penticton.
