Gasoline prices - a grumpy diversion

Today I filled up my big ass SUV in the big ass Province of Alberta, supplier of Oil to our friends down south to the tune of 1.888 million barrels of oil to the US a day, Making Canada the #1 exporter of oil to the US (Yes well ahead of Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and Iraq).

So I paid $1.14 per Litre for regular fuel. There are 3.78 litres per US Gallon which means that if I do the gas math, gasoline here - four hours from the actual oil production - is $4.31 a US gallon. - that's 80 HIGHER than the US average right now.

I hate Math.
