quick Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Is this just an isolated thing, or has gas prices risen to somewhere in that range in Ontario?

Chris Allen Veteran Posted September 22, 2005 Veteran Share Posted September 22, 2005 Just filled up at $0.95. But they told me that Sarnia is at $1.92 and Windsor is at $1.87 so London will be higher. Yikes! Cars are lined up down the streets, the roads are empty and everyone is getting gas. This is insane.

Allan Posted September 22, 2005 Author Share Posted September 22, 2005 This was from A-Channel London News ... with the Hurricane coming, they are clearning off Oil Rigs in the ocean, and that will cause stoppage of oil and they say by the middle of next week could be $2/lt in Ontario (TO, London, KGW/C, Ottawa etc) and less in the other provinces... I'm so glad I don't drive... Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/375463-chatham-ontario-sets-canadian-record/#findComment-586561250 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexcyn Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 no most people are middle class, and can't afford gas and insurance on a car. 586561421[/snapback] I take public transit, but I mean, I know people that need a car to commute to work because public transit doesn't cover that far away. It sucks for them since they have to be able to afford going to work every day. It just means that they have to cut back on certain things. It's kind of sad once you think about it. :s Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/375463-chatham-ontario-sets-canadian-record/#findComment-586561505 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Posted September 22, 2005 Author Share Posted September 22, 2005 OH MY GOSH! Shell Stratford Ontario (about 45min from where I live) was at 225.0 at 7:54 this morning! Good golly Miss Molly! I'm glad I walk to work. I"ll let you know the prices in my small 3200 person town when I walk past the shell today. I'd like to see other ppl post their gas prices. Do it somthing like City/Town is at ###.#/liter (95% of the World) or /gallon (US) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/375463-chatham-ontario-sets-canadian-record/#findComment-586562823 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie33 Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 (edited) That's unreal!!!! Although when Hurricane Katrina hit a local gas station in VA immediately jacked their price from $2.95/gal to $5.89/gal and people actually paid that much for it. I can't wait to see what Hurricane Rita does to the price at the pump.

Lexcyn Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Gas is still 109.9 here this morning ... I'm not sure when or if the prices are going to be that extreme. :| [Edit] By the way I'm up in Sudbury Ontario. EVERY gas station is super crowded and the attendants are directing traffic becuase everyone is fighting to get gas at this price.
