I just checked and they're paying 2.88 a litre (I think that's converted to Canadian dollars in the UK). Of course, they drive shorter distances and a lot of people take the train versus even owning a car.

They also have a commodity-rocking war happening on their continent. Average gas price in the US right now is $1.37 CAD/liter.

Just feels like one of those "let's take advantage" moments that really sucks for the average person.

I haven't calculated how much money I've saved by being able to work from home (my wife as well is able to work remote) versus driving plus parking or taking a bus, but it's not an insignificant amount.

Prior to Covid I was doing a 160 km round-trip every workday to Nanaimo and back. They were paying me the CRA mileage rate as a taxable benefit. So my gas was covered but it didn’t quite cover new tires, maintenance and things like that. Now things are simple.

cool i guess, but unless you have a helicopter, how many people can actually see the Coliseum?

This Vancouver venue will now light up for major holidays, events, and cultural moments

You can submit a charity or good cause that you think it should honour.

labour shortage? for what businesses?

a golf course, marina, and one supermarket.
the gas stations and parcel pick-ups require one or two people each
but sure, if some tsawwassen kids need jobs, go for it.

hope this doesn't launch a spate of political reprisals.
this dude was wanted in India on terrorism charges (some murders in Punjab, and a bombing in India)
that could all be bullshit, though... who knows.
