Default Petrol Prices in Canada !!!

The summer time has seen prices stuck between 75-86c/ltr ( here in ontario anyway ). If you drive around town, you can sometimes get a bargain, for under 70c.

Today, the lowest have seen is 77.1, just make sure you stay away from petrol canada, esso, and other leeches

Folks around the country, how are things where you are?

Can you rename this thread "Petrol prices in Hamilton"?

If you want to discuss gas prices across canada its going on round about page 8 (post #112) of this entertainingly random thread

There is a particular gas station on hwy 8 in Hamilton that alway seems to have the lowest prices round there. Today, the lowest have seen is 77.1, just make sure you stay away from petrol canada, esso, and other leeches

You know, have tried to ignore you, but you seem to have a problem with my threads that ain't got nothing to do with you, for someone that has me on IGNORE, and goes out of his way to tell me, you sure have a funny way of knowing what am talking about.

I'll draw Ray's attention to this, so that when push comes to shove, you don't start throwing your toys out of your pram, and trying to make everyone feel sorry for you.

Take your ego somewhere else, not interested in it.

Whooaah Nelly

I replied to your comment about the IGNORE thing elsewhere. At the moment you are not on the ignore list, obviously. All I was saying is that this thread wasnt about gas prices in Canada, and pointed a link at a discusion elsewhere that sort of was, at the moment. Calm down, if people want to contribute to the thread they will, what are you worried about?

I did checked out your link to the national gas price thing, but it doenst really help me cos it doesnt list the cheapest stations in my area, which is what I was expecting it to.

Please, dont take every comment on your posts so personally, for everyones sake!

What is this "your threads" thing? Between me and you we pretty much end up posting on practically every thread posted here sooner or later. I cant comment for you, but I come here because I am interested in helping newcommers understand some things about canada that may not be obvious, and to have the odd entertaining bit of banter with people with a similar interest and a some common expat experience. You and me, sometimes we disagree. Big deal. They are not your posts, they are not my posts, they are everyones posts.

Lets just relax, lifes too short.

Well - to go back to the original thread - which I think should be called "Gas" prices in Canada because nobody in Canada would ever call it petrol. Anyway, I filled up yesterday and paid 80.5 cents a litre. That is quite low for what it has been.

The forum is for British expats, who will understand petrol better and might assume it was about natural gas, not realising that Canadians like to talk about petrol/gas prices.

In England, it is about the same in pence as it is in cents over there.

Liz......thanks for bringing the thread back on track, also if you want to be pandantic about things, I'll get the mods to change it to GAS then

That is a high price round here, today as we speak, it's going for 76.1 cents at ESSO, but cheaper at places like BEAVER, and SUNOCO.

But you are living in "paradise"...you dont need our sympathy, and we only have so much to go around.

73c in Belleville today still. I'm off to fill up my little mazda. Got nearly 600k out of this tank full, somehow my Sube is only good for about 430max, and the tanks are the same size. Something not right about that
