I was out and about and needed gas at some point, Stations I passed were 175, I was heading to Nisku, so I said, Costco, there should be in the 150s (usually they are 10-20 below others), no; it was at 174, really %$#, went to do the errant in Nisku and there saw 172. I returned home, and it the Station there, that normally is higher than other places since if you need gas when you are already at home, well sucks to be you you must go there. Well, they have it at 157.
They know there is no need, beside greed of course, to increase prices here. The typical big expenses of a company, raw material, salary, energy consumption. All of those are still the same for those companies and the global market wont affect it much. Government should establish a link between incentives and royalties with no increasing too much the price in Alberta of the gas (cap it somehow). More now with a pipe line to the States.
