Gas is jumping 20 cents a litre here in Edmonton tomorrow
I took my bike out this afternoon and saw lines around the block at the 3 stations I passed in the city. We're taking our Explorer out tonight and filling the tank before it gets really bad.

Oy..

1. Why the gas price jump in Canada?
Canada (and specially Alberta) don't transport fuel from the US, so there shouldn't be any gas jump at all. This can only be called "category 5 price gouging"
