  1. I am not sure where you got your degree in economics for it’s all about supply and demand. Federal, state or provincial taxes do play their roll but it’s doesn’t stop any one from driving to work every day. If it was all based on regulation and government then please explain why gas, oil prices increase during the summer driving months and typically drop in the winter. Explain why natural gas prices sky rocket during the high demand cold winter months and then drop in the warm summer months. Why during the first few months of the pandemic no one was traveling including air travel and the gas prices dropped to almost 25-30 year low? Of course geopolitics play a large part for it threatens a market that is typically volatile at any time. Hell, if there is some natural disaster prices jump. A war involving Russia of course prices will jump specially since they are a large market in the EU. We haven’t even got into the geographical aspect of oil costs. Canada is a small market, we roughly have the same population as California but are the second largest country in the world. Do you here in Alberta we just warp over fuel to pumps in Manitoba? There are costs to and yes you are correct, Canada has higher than average North American taxes. There are costs to universal healthcare. Try arguing taking that away from the majority of Canadians.
  2. I insist you all keep your SUV’s and Pickups topped off for the best of the country. We in oil rich Alberta are having troubles as it is, trying to find safe havens for our yacht and private jets.
  3. There is no power Laz, no water, no heat, running out of food due to looting and espionage by Russian forces to blow railway lines etc. There is footage of the Russian military using cluster bombs in urban areas and video of Russians vehicles with the capability to use vacuum or thermobaric bombs. These have been banned to be used by the UN. This doesn’t sound like a man as you describe “as being portrayed as a bad guy”. If this continues and as Putin is shelling Ukrainian cities, he can potentially be tried for war crimes against humanity.
  4. Hey Loader, I think Putin has no interest in annexing the Ukraine. He wishes to neutralize the Ukrainian military, replace the government that is pro-Russian one which will in effect stop the Ukraine from ever joining NATO. He will in effect have a buffer nation between Russia and any NATO defense build up.
  5. I am not sure why the US even bothers to import oil from Russia for its such a small insignificant amount 12,000 barrels a day. It imports 150,000 barrels a day from Canada. https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=PET&s=MTTIMUSCA1&f=M
