Pump prices falling, weekly report says

The Regina Leader-Post -- OTTAWA - The average price of gasoline in Canada has fallen for the fourth time in five weeks, a weekly survey showed Tuesday, putting the cost down more than nine per cent from its peak in mid-July.

MJ Ervin & Associates, a petroleum-industry research group, said the average price for regular gasoline was $1.272 a litre, down 1.5 cents from a week earlier.

The average had been as high as $1.401 a litre, according to the report that was issued July 15. The price of crude oil has fallen almost 25 per cent since peaking July 11.

Back down to $3.48 here in Toledo, but Thursdays are traditional gas increase days, so we'll see what the afternoon brings. WE NEED ALTERNATIVE ENERGY ON LINE NOW!!

If Canadians would just start drilling, they have a very large oil reserve and it would help them as well. Do they have a congress that supports the people or not?

One thing this high oil price situation has caused is real interest and real action, though maybe not fast enough action, to find alternatives.

Good, buy now, and drive efficently, because the price will go up in a hundred days when the US elections are over.

Was that “weekly” of “weakly”? And how does this square with the OTHER story that crude oil is going up?
