Inflation has increased, according to Statistics Canada, and gas prices are at least partly to blame. Here's why gas could be costing Canadians more over the next few months.

Gas prices are expected to reach an annual high this summer across Canada and into fall, with more than one factor causing the increase, experts say.

Created as a crown Corp by a liberal government with the intention of keepingahandleon prices, and then privatized by a conservative government (because that’s what rhy do to crown corps).

No I mean SLASH the PRICES by REMOVING the PROBLEM

and then privatized by a conservative government

If it is any consolation, said party never won again after that and eventually threw in the towel when winning even 12 seats proved to be a struggle.
