Kelowna gas prices compared to Vancouver

WTF is going on with gas prices in the Okanagan? Castanet is reporting that gas prices in Kelowna are around $150. CBC posted a chart of the lowest prices in Vancouver but on my way to work it's like $2.17. So clearly we're getting scammed. Metro Vancouver has a 10 cents a litre regional gas tax for Translink but then end as soon as you cross into Aldergrove.  

Gasbuddy confirms the cheap prices in Kelowna. CBC says the highest price in the country is 202.i in Newfoundland but as I said it's 2.17 in parts of Langley. 

Paying More at the pump? Another Pipeline Would Help With That

Energy now claims that "Metro Vancouver motorists woke up this week to prices around $1.80 to $1.90 a litre, with some stations reaching 189.9 cents, as crude surged amid the conflict involving Iran and threats to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz." Yeah but they didn't start it. Netanyahu did when he got Trump to cover for his invasion of Lebanon. 

Their headline reads "Paying More at the pump? Another Pipeline Would Help With That." Go f*ck yourself. We already twined the Trans Mountain pipeline from Edmonton to Burnaby and Vancouver is still getting f*cked over. That's because Vancouver needs another refinery. We send unrefined oil to the US and they gouge us when they refine it for us. Building a dozen more pipelines at the taxpayers expense for export to China won't do a thing for the price of gas in Vancouver. The only thing that will help Vancouver is another refinery. 

Danielle Smith doesn't give a f*ck about Vancouver. She just wants to commit welfare fraud by having us pay for more pipelines to fill up tankers to China so they can make more money. She doesn't care about a refinery or the price of gas in Vancouver. Vancouver needs to renegotiate the use of our port. Vancouver needs another refinery before we build any more pipelines.
