I hear so many people blaming the outrageous gas prices on Donald Trump, but hereโs a fact for yโall to ponder.
Oil just topped $100 per barrel. As of five minutes ago gas is selling for $1.90/litre in my neighborhood.
The last time oil hit $100 per barrel was under Stephen Harper, yet gas prices topped out at $1.38 per litre back then.
Yes, the Iran war is affecting gas prices, but thereโs about 52ยข/litre that is the direct result of taxes, environmental taxes, and taxes on those taxes.
